Single patient shows promise with Ultrasound-Guided cystic hygroma injection

NCT ID NCT07246928

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This case report describes a procedure where a child with cystic hygroma (a fluid-filled lump) received an ultrasound-guided injection of bleomycin directly into the lesion. The goal was to shrink the cyst. Only one patient was involved, so the results are very preliminary and may not apply to others.

What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could offer a less invasive treatment option for cystic hygroma in children.
