Using sildenafil (viagra) to treat congenital lymphatic malformations of the head and neck, our experience

This case report demonstrates the multiple challenges a paediatric otolaryngologist encounters when treating children with congenital lymphatic malformations of the head and neck. The pathophysiology of this condition, which presents as a broad spectrum of disease, is poorly understood and perhaps explains why directed medical therapy is yet to be wholly successful. Current reported approaches include observation in the outpatient setting, surgical resection, endovascular sclerotherapy and radiofrequency ablation [1].
