Varsha Bhatia1, Rahul Taksande1, Divyaja Sondankar1.   

Abstract

Cystic Hygroma is a well-recognized lesion in paediatric patients but it is very rare in adults. We report here a case of Cervical Cystic Hygroma in a 45 yr old male. The reasons to present this case are 1) Its rarity in adults 2) Unusual age of presentation 3) Simulates various benign and malignant lesions at this site 4) Is a diagnostic challenge and 5) Role of histology for definitive postoperative diagnosis.
