There are no published data regarding the role of lymphangiogenesis in
patients with non-phymatous rosacea. A new study by Gomaa, et.al., reports
a new understanding of rosacea pathogenesis and suggests that lymphatics
are involved early in the pathogenesis of rosacea and do not constitute
a late event. This is noteworthy. One of the theories of the cause of
rosacea is the lymphatic theory. Note theory #10 mentioned on this page:
