Abstract

We report on six patients with clinical findings consisting of (1) Capillary malformation (CM) of the lower lip; (2) Lymphatic malformation (LM) of the face/neck; (3) Asymmetry of face and limbs, and (4) Partial/generalized Overgrowth. This constellation of findings has been observed in six unrelated patients, constituting a likely "new" syndrome/association of capillary-lymphatic-venous malformation and asymmetric overgrowth.
