    Abstract:
    The authors are describing three cases of lymphangioma, one at a seven years old child with cervico-mediastinal localization; another at a 39 years old person, situated only in mediastinum, the third is a cervical lymphangioma at a 55 years old subject. The respiratory symptoms are present in the two cases with mediastinal involvement. The patient with cervical localization had no symptoms. The radiological exams: thoracic radiography, CT or the ultrasound test are revealing a cystic tumor in mediastinum or in cervical region. We performed a complete surgical tumor resection through median sternotomy, left thoracotomy and cervicotomy. The evolution was very good in all cases. The diagnosis had histopathological confirmation.
