Summary

This study tests whether using a special dye (indocyanine green) that glows under a special light can help surgeons better see and remove cystic lymphatic malformations in children. About 110 children will be randomly assigned to receive either the dye-guided surgery or standard surgery. Researchers will compare cure rates, how many treatments are needed, and side effects like infection or slow healing.
