Neonatal Mediastinal Cystic Hygroma: Case Report

Faten Alawaysheh, Hashem E. Aqrabawi, Alaeddin Alali, Abdallah Almhairat, Ghadeer Alsawalgeh

Abstract: A cystic hygroma is a fluid - filled sac that results from a blockage in the lymphatic system. It is most commonly located in the neck or head area, but can be located anywhere in the body. It may be discovered in a fetus during a pregnancy ultrasound, or it may be apparent at birth as a soft bulge under the skin. Herein, we present a case of neonatal mediastinal cystic hygroma extending from neck to the intrathoracic cavity causing respiratory distress that resolved spontaneously, along with a review of the literature.

Keywords: neonatal cystic hygroma, lymphatic malformation, mediastinal mass, neonatal respiratory distress, spontaneous resolution
