Branchial cysts although common, should be managed with great precision because of their proximity to vital neurovascular structures. This case series illustrates how tricky can branchial cysts get, especially during dissection. The third case report demonstrates how branchial cysts can be misdiagnosed with other lesions, thus delaying treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
