A 12 years old girl presented with dyspnea, weight loss, pulmonary infiltrates and pleural effusions. The lung lesion as seen at the necropsy consisted of a lymphatic vascular proliferation limited to interstitial septae, bronchi, adventitia of large vessels and pleura. Disseminated lymphangiomatosis is a rare disorder with a poor prognosis.
