Abstract:

Lymphatic malformation (LM) is a rare congenital anomaly of lymphatic vessel development. Based on its clinical and histologic features, it can be classified as macrocystic, microcystic,or mixed. Lymphatic malformation grows relatively slowly and almost never subsides naturally. Currently,the focus of research on lymphatic malformations has shifted to drug therapy, especially targeted drugs for their gene regulation. In recent years, several gene mutations, such as PIK3CA, TEK, GATA2, CCBE1,etc., have been found to be closely associated with lymphatic malformations, which provides new ideas for molecular diagnosis and targeted therapy. The aim of this paper is to explore the pathogenesis of lymphatic malformations in depth and to combine it with the current research progress in drug therapy, in order to improve the understanding of the molecular mechanism of lymphatic malformations and to provide more targeted medication guidance for clinical treatment.

Key words: Lymphatic malformation, Molecular mechanism, Signaling pathway, Targeting, Drug therapy
