A second case with acquired lymphangioma of the vulva has been presented. The condition was diagnosed 22 years following radiation and lymph-node dissection for carcinoma of the cervix and a long history of recurring erysipelas involving the vulva and lymphedematous lower extremities. The pathogenesis of the lymphangioma and the possibility of a later development of a vascular cancer have been discussed.
