Congenital lymphangiectasia with lymphedema is a disorder constituting the main defect in many different genetic syndromes.
Herein we describe a 23-year-old male patient with congenital lymphangiectasia and severe lymphedema of the right leg, scrotum,
and abdominal wall, who presented with end-stage renal disease, presumably due to cystic renal lymphangiectasia, and is undergoing
chronic hemodialysis treatment.
