Clinical trials: Protein Losing Enteropathy
Lymphatic Diseases, Lymphatic Abnormalities
A Prospective Natural History Study of Lymphatic Anomalies
Background: The lymphatic system is a network of vessels that carry a clear fluid called lymph through the body. Problems in the lymphatic system can cause pain, fluid buildup, and issues with immunity.
