Lymphedema-distichiasis syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by a combination of congenital lymphedema of the lower extremities and distichiasis, a growth abnormality of the eyelashes in which they develop in two rows. The pathology belongs to the group of primary lymphedemas and is part of the spectrum of developmental disorders of the lymphatic system. The disease manifests itself in early childhood and is accompanied by progressive swelling of the extremities of varying severity. Distichiasis can cause irritation of the conjunctiva of the eye and contribute to the development of keratoconjunctivitis. In some cases, a combination of these main signs is observed with other congenital anomalies, such as spina bifida, heart defects, or urological disorders.<\/p>\n
