What it is
A rare vascular tumor characterized by an ill-defined, slowly growing, asymptomatic cutaneous plaque or nodule mostly involving the limbs, in fewer cases the trunk. The tumor is composed of lymphatic-like channels with prominent intraluminal papillary tufts with hyaline cores lined by hobnail endothelial cells. It is locally aggressive, while metastasis is rare. Infants and children are much more often affected than adults.

Prevalence figures describe populations, not individuals, and are often estimates from a single study. Where the figure is an incidence or a birth prevalence, it says so.
ICD-10 codes
ICD-10 has no distinct code for most rare diseases, so many are filed under the nearest available one. A shared code identifies the group, not this disease — the ORPHAcode above is what identifies it.
