Lymphatic malformations of head and neck are uncommon causes of cervicofacial rapidly growing expansive process. The need for treatment

for these malformations depends on the location and size of lesion. Management of children with large recurrent lymphatic

malformation often requires multidisciplinary care involving otolaryngology and interventional radiology. We report a six-year-old

patient with congenital severe recurrent lymphangioma and discuss appropriate treatment modality.

Keywords: congenital, cervicofacial, lymphatic malformation, treatment modality
