Samenvatting
Multifocal lymphangio-endotheliomatosis with thrombocytopenia (MLE-T) is an extremely rare disease and manifests itself with diffuse vascular cutaneous and gastrointestinal tract lesions, which can cause severe bleeding. The thrombocytopenia is chronic and fluctuating and thought to result from platelet trapping by the multifocal vascular lesions. We describe a newborn with numerous cutaneous and extracutaneous lesions who was successfully treated with thalidomide.
