Is There Any Cure For Multiple Lymphangiomatosis In A Child?

My son (18 months) was diagnosed in January 2012 with multiple lymphangiomatosis - in the UK there is no cure for it at the moment. Is there anywhere in the world any treatment available, or some hope for the cure in the near future? Many thanks T.K.

Hi.... Many thanks for consulting with HCM. I understand your concern. Right now surgical options are plausible only if complications arise. Otherwise as your drs have told in UK..its only conservative management. Hope my answer was helpful for you. Happy to help anytime. Feel free to consult at HCM whenever needed.
