Background: Thyroglossal duct cyst a developmental anomaly present as a congenital cervical masses of neck in children.Objectives: To observe its deferent presentation and evaluate among the children. Results: Among 24 children with thyroglossal cyst, 15 boys and 9 girls with male female ratio 1.67:1, age ranged from 4 years to 18 years (mean 9.46 std ±4.27). Male (mean7.53±4.01years) child are younger than female (mean12.67±2.39 years) child. 66.67% male children were below 10 years of age and 88.89% female children were over 10 years of age. According to the presentation site 17(70.83%) cases were juxtra hyoid, 4(16.67%) were suprahyoid and 3 (12.50%) were infrahyoid. 23 (95.83%) were present as midline swelling, only 1(4.17%) was present as left lateral infrahyoid swelling. 4(16.67%) patient were attended as thyroglossal fistulae with

Ultrasound (US) has gradually established a place in the otolaryngological diagnostic armamentarium. In this paper, its current role, relative to other imaging techniques, is discussed. It is concluded that, for staging purposes in head and neck squamous cell cancer, US (when combined with ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy) is superior to other imaging techniques. In addition, US may provide valuable information in patients with an elusive head and neck mass.

“…On Doppler examination, the vascular distribution of tuberculosis nodes is varied and simulates benign and malignant nodes. 8 On account of the patient's low socio-economic conditions, background and living with foreign nationals, the infectious diseases specialist suspected tuberculosis. This hypothesis was confirmed by a positive Mantoux test, subsequently influencing the radiological diagnosis, moreover, made during a period of acme.…”

Neck epidermoid cyst mimicking tuberculosis at ultrasound: Case report and review of literature

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Neck masses in children can be inflammatory, congenital or neoplastic. When a congenital cyst becomes infected repeatedly, it may mimic inflammatory disease and the diagnosis may be challenging with ultrasound. An increasing incidence of infection with non-tuberculous mycobacterial organisms has been observed in recent decades in children with cervical lymphadenopathy. An ultrasound scan performed during the infectious phase of a mass can be misleading and can lead to an incorrect diagnostic hypothesis with the risk of erroneous medical and surgical therapies. We describe a case of a lateral neck epidermoid cyst mimicking and misdiagnosed as a tuberculous lymphadenopathy at ultrasound scan and treated with primary surgical excision. After surgery, a histological diagnosis of an epidermal cyst was made. There were no signs of recurrence during the 12-month follow-up period. A review of the literature and a proposed practice pathway for lateral cervical lymphadenopathy in children is also reported.
