The lesion was diagnosed with the help of MRI which showed a cystic lesion extending from the carotid sheath to the mediastinum. And confirmed by fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). The lesion was treated by surgical excision along with a cardiothoracic team.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We will explore in our discussion the diagnostic modalities for such lesions and the different treatments available for Cystic Hygromas.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We concluded from this case that accurate diagnosis and careful planning with multidisciplinary team approach and choosing the right treatment as indicated has a great impact on the results for such difficult cases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.09.090","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,3]],"date-time":"2020-10-03T01:49:31Z","timestamp":1601689771000},"page":"174-177","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["A rare case of cystic hygroma in neck and extending into thoracic cavity\u2606"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"76","author":[{"given":"Mohamed","family":"El Sayed","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohamed","family":"Touny","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nesreen","family":"Ibrahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ibrahim","family":"Kasb","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zainab","family":"Al-Azzawi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R5-41-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"132","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijsu.2018.10.028","article-title":"The SCARE 2018 Statement: updating consensus Surgical CAse REport (SCARE) guidelines","volume":"60","author":"Agha","year":"2018","journal-title":"Int.
