title: Unilocular cervical lymphatic cyst in an adult.
abstract: Unilocular cervical lymphatic lesions are rare clinical entities. These endothelial-lined, fluid-filled structures must be distinguished from true cysts (epithelial lining), and pseudocysts (no cellular lining). This article presents a case report of a unilocular cervical lymphatic cyst in an adult. The embryology and anatomy of the cervical lymphatic system is discussed.
