Abstract
Cervical cystic lymphangiomas are rare. They occur in most cases in children but late appearance in adults is possible. The giant forms can expose to complications and pose operational difficulties. A cervical computed tomography is often necessary to orient the diagnosis but especially to study the extensions and the anatomical relationships with the surrounding vascular structures in order to carry out the total surgical excision. We report in this, a case of giant cervical cystic lymphangioma in a 29-year-old woman seen in a military field hospital in Morocco in 2019 and we discuss the different features of this malformation with data from the literature.
