Dr. Tejashree Mahind | Dr. Deepali Thakur ^[3]

Abstract: Lymphangioma is a benign tumor usually present in paediatric age group but occurrence is very rare in adult patients. Such lymphatic cysts in the cervical region poses a great challenge to the anaesthesiologists. The anaesthetic difficulties are because of the size and extension of the cyst, difficult airway, postoperative respiratory obstruction and coexisting anomalies. Here we present a case of huge bilateral neck lymphangioma and its anaesthetic management.
