Massive study launches to unravel mysteries of rare lymphatic diseases

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

* INCLUSION CRITERIA: Affected (Proband) In order to be eligible to participate in this study, an individual must meet one of the following criteria as determined after review of medical history: * Current or history of lymphatic anomaly or symptoms suggestive of a lymphatic disorder Or * An ill-defined vascular anomaly that is suspected to have an abnormal lymphatic component Or * A pathogenic, likely pathogenic, or VUS in a genetic disorder with a known lymphatic component Or * Clinical diagnosis of a syndrome with a known lymphatic component Unaffected (First Degree Relatives: Parents and Siblings) Genetic variants underlying complex lymphatic anomalies can be passed down through parents or be new in a child (de novo). Inclusion of first-degree relatives will assist in genetic analysis to delineate whether the variant is inherited or de novo. To be eligible to participate as a first degree relative in this study, an individual must be a first-degree family member of an affected participants EXCLUSION CRITERIA: Affected Proband An individual who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this study after review of medical history, concomitant medication and allergy review, anthropometrics, and performance status: -Any condition, in the opinion of the investigator, that would increase risk of participation or impair their ability to comply with protocol requirements. Lymphatic anomalies that are definitively determined to be secondary by the principal investigator will be excluded from this study. For example, participants who develop a lymphedema after breast cancer surgery. Unaffected (First Degree Relatives) -Any condition, in the opinion of the investigator, that would increase risk of participation or impair their ability to comply with protocol requirements.
