Giant cystic hygroma of the neck often represents a pathology in children with severe potential complications and considerable technical difficulties in surgical therapy, which often makes it necessary because the alternative therapies provided are not available. A case of a cystic hygroma with a maximum diameter of 10 cm, located in the neck of a 3-year-old girl, with sudden rapid growth and an underlying inclusion cyst compressing the internal jugular vein, is described. The case was resolved with radical surgical therapy, without complications, without recurrence, and with acceptable aesthetic results. |
