Cystic lymphangioma is a benign congenital disease that is more seen in head and neck regions. We report a case of a 54-year-old man with a growing supraclavicular mass. The ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging suggested a cystic lymphangioma. The mass was surgically totally removed without any recurrence. Histology examination confirmed the diagnosis. Cystic lymphangioma in adults is a rare entity and the literature on the subject is poor with no global recommendations.
