Cystic hygroma is one type of the benign malformations and typically located in the neck, clavicle, and others, in children under the age of 5 years. However, the incidence of giant cervicomediastinal giant cystic hygroma is very rare, especially in adulthood. Such a location and age make its diagnosis difficult because they are usually asymptomatic. Complete surgical resection seems impossible while multiple sites are involved. Herein, we present a case of giant cervicomediastinal cystic hygroma, describing the clinical presentation, radiographic features, and OK-432 sclerotherapy. In conclusion, repeated OK-432 sclerotherapy may be an effective treatment option in giant cervicomediastinal cystic hygroma.
