OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this work were a) to assess the feasibility of lymphoscintigraphy in very young children, and b) to assess its usefulness in understanding the underlying pathophysiology.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Forty-one children (age range 3 months-16 years) with primary lymphedema of the lower and/or upper limbs underwent lymphosinctigraphy using 99mTC-labeled colloid (Nanocis or Nanocol) injected subcutaneous at the foot and/or hand level. Recording time, which depended on the child's age, included at least static images during the thirty minutes following injection and four hours later.
RESULTS: Abnormal activity of the lymph collectors, nodes, and interstitial space were analyzed according to age (> or < 2 years). Abnormal findings were classed as simple hypoplasia (n=18) or other type of lymph disease: diffuse lymphatic dysplasia (n=6), mixed vascular dysmorphism (n=5), amniotic bride disease (n=1), and hypoplasia revealed by occurrence of a minor factor (n=11). These observations demonstrate the role of lymphoscintigraphy in the diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of lymphedema in children.
CONCLUSION: Lymphoscintigraphy is a useful technique for very young children with lymphedema providing further information contributing to overall exploration.
