Cervical Cystic Hygroma in an Adult

الملخص EN

Cystic hygromas/lymphangiomas are extremely rare malformations in adults.

They are usually seen in infants and children under 2 years of age.

En bloc resection is difficult due to the adhesive characteristics of the tumors.

Inadequate surgical intervention often leads to recurrent disease.

We report herein the case of a cystic hygroma/lymphangioma that presented as an uncommon mass on the cervical region in an adult, together with its histopathological, radiologic, and operative features.
