Lymphangioma of Neck in a 35-year Old Female: A Case Report of Rare Entity
Journal Title: Journal of Chalmeda AnandRao Institute of Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 16, Issue 2
Abstract
Lymphangiomas are lymphatic malformations which occur mostly in children and uncommonly in adult. Although the lesion can occur anywhere, the most common sites are in the posterior triangle of the neck, axilla, mediastinum, groin, retroperitoneal space and pelvis in a descending order. We hereby report a rare case of a 35 years old woman with lymphangioma of neck who presented in ENT OPD with a slowly enlarging neck swelling on right side of 6 months duration for which excision was done after USG and FNAC and sent for HPE which was suggestive of lymphangioma. The adult lympangioma which is unusual in occurence, prompted us to report this case.
