Brief summary
The goal of this prospective randomized controlled study is to explore the role of indocyanine green-fluorescence imaging in management of cystic lymphatic malformation.. To clarify the application value of indocyanine green-fluorescence imaging in both diagnosis and treatment of cystic lymphatic malformation (cLM) in children, is helpful for exploring pathogenesis of cLM, and providing a clearer scientific basis for subsequent surgical intervention. It also provides alternative for the future diagnosis and treatment of cLM. Participants will receive indocyanine green-fluorescence imaging before operation, while the patients in control group will receive traditional operation. Researchers will compare difference in curative effect between two groups.
Interventions
