KLA

Definitions

A generalized lymphatic anomaly characterized by kaposiform spindled lymphatic endothelial cells. Despite the histological similarity between KHE and KLA, the clinical and imaging features are distinctive. KHE-spectrum lesions are unifocal vascular tumors, except in rare reports of multifocal disease. KHE typically presents in early infancy with a characteristic purpuric, cutaneous lesion[PMID:24252784]
