Kistik higroma, birçok kistten oluşan, çevrelendiği dokulara parmaksı uzanımlar gösteren, lenfatik dokunun benign gelişimsel anomalisidir. Kistik higroma genellikle servikofasiyal alanda görülür ve üst ekstremitede olması oldukça nadirdir. Biz burada sağ üst ekstremiteye lokalize kistik higromalı bir hasta sunduk.

Cystic hygroma usually occurs in cervicofacial area in affected individuals and upper extremity is extremely rare involvement area. We presented a patient with cystic hygroma located to right upper arm. Complete surgical resection with negative surgical margins is the best treatment.
