Lymphangioma (cystic hygroma) is benign congenital malformation of the lymphatic system commonly present in the neonate or in early infancy. The cysts are generally filled with clear lymph and the commonest site is neck. We present a case of unusual giant lymphangioma of the breast in an adult female. The relevant literature is briefly revived.
