Abstract
We present a case of prenatal diagnosis of a fetal cystic hygroma of t he arm diagnosed using ultrasound scanning in the 32nd week of gestati on. This represents the first reported case of cystic hygroma in this location. Ultrasonography was useful for the assessment of fetal arm m obility and for monitoring the volume of the mass during the pregnancy .
