Only one case of congenital hereditary lymphedema (Milroy’s disease) has been reported in the Korean literature (1964) by Lim et al.

We performed a lymphangiogram and venogram for diagnosis but lymphangiogram was unsatisfactory. She received only medical treatment with steroid therapy. She got some improvement after taking steroids for 8 months. A literature review was made on this subject
