ABSTRACT
Cystic hygroma, or cystic lymphangioma, is a true, benign, congenital rnulticystic tumor arising from sequestrations of embryonic ly mphatic iissue. Most often it occurs. At birth or early in life, and it is found most commonly in the neck, and its distribution coincides with that of the prirnitive lymph sacs. We report herein a case of huge cystic hygroma on the face and neck in a 2 month-old male infant. The swelling was softly cystic, and was partially compressible, and it was brilliantly translucent. The cystic mass contained a serous fluid. Biopsy findings showed simple endothelium-lined lymphatic vessel and loose, lace-like fibrous tissue stroma, and dilated muscle space filled with serous fluid.
