%X Kasabach-Merritt Syndrome consists of a set of signs and symptoms associated with capillary hemangioma with thrombocytopenia, which causes bleeding accompanied by petechiae, ecchymosis, and spontaneous hematomas. This present study aims to report a rare case of cervical lymphangioma (cystic hygroma) that later evolved into Kasabach-Merritt Syndrome, demonstrating the importance of systemic evaluation of veno-lymphatic malformations. Although rare, prompt diagnosis and therapy are necessary due to the high severity and potential fatality of the condition.”
