Abstract Background: Lymphatic malformations (LMs) often pose treatment challenges due
to a large size or a critical location that could lead to disfigurement, and there are no
standardized treatment approaches for either refractory or unresectable cases. Methods: We
examined the genomic landscape of a patient cohort of LMs (n= 30 cases) that underwent
comprehensive genomic profiling using a large-panel next-generation sequencing assay.
Immunohistochemical analyses were completed in parallel.
