Abstract:

<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Tumors of the neck are interesting to surgeons especially because of the complex neck anatomy and difficult differential diagnosis. The aim is to study different types of neck swellings i.e. thyroid swelling, salivary gland swelling, other neck swellings such as thyroglossal cyst, branchial cyst, lymphangioma and also the miscellaneous and rare lumps in the neck. The study also discusses their age and sex-wise distribution, clinical features, presentation, diagnostic modalities and treatment.</p><p class="abstract">

Abstract:

The thyroglossal duct cyst is one of the most common lesions in the midline of the neck and is found in around 7% of the population. They often present as painless neck swellings that move in response to tongue protrusion and during deglutition. We describe a case of thyroglossal duct cyst that was atypical in that the cyst was distant from the midline, it did not move in response to tongue protrusion, and the swelling was significant that resembled a colloid goiter.

Abstract:

Midline cystic neck swellings are often seen in younger patients and may have several causes. Sonography is the initial imaging modality followed by a Computer Tomography (CT) scan with MRI being reserved as a problem-solving tool or for preoperative extent evaluation.

Cystic hygroma is a rare lymphatic tumor, uncommonly seen in adults. We report a case of woman aged 55 years, who presented with a huge cystic swelling causing difficulty in neck movements. Huge neck swelling distorting the anatomy poses a challenge for securing the airway. The airway was secured with orotracheal intubation with help of a bougie after general anaesthesia, shifting the swelling off the midline by an experienced anaesthesiologist. Appropriate preoperative airway assessment, meticulous planning anticipating difficulty and simple manoeuvres, can ease intubation.

Dermoid cysts are congenital tumours which are usually not paid any attention at the time of presentation and later on, they catch the patient’s attention. 40% of dermoid cysts get diagnosed by birth and 60% by five years of age. These are benign in nature. Only 5% have shown malignant transformation which is very rare. These are said to be ectodermal in origin embryologically. These are usually seen in the midline, as these are the site of embryonic fusion. These benign lesions are present as single or multiple throughout the body.

Dermoid cyst is a benign cutaneous developmental anomaly that arises from the entrapment of ectodermal elements commonly arising from midline where the embryonic structures fuse. It is lined by stratified squamous epithelium with mature skin appendages found on their wall and their lumens filled with keratin and hair. Dermoid cysts usually form in the ovary, testes, the skin of the head, neck, face, or lower back, or in the central nervous system. Rarely dermoid cyst can occur on the lateral part of the neck or floor of the mouth. Neck swellings are difficult to diagnose clinically and are clo

Carotid body tumour (CBT) is one of the most common jugular paraganglioma involving the carotid body chemoreceptors. We report the case of a 22 year young man who presented with complain of large painless progressive swelling in right upper neck for 3 years duration. On examination, swelling appeared pulsatile and arising from carotid vessel. MRI Neck and MRA performed revealed large well defined hypervascular mass lesion encasing right common carotid artery, its bifurcation and ECA, with feeders from ECA.

Abstract:

AbstractThyroglossal duct cysts most frequently present in childhood as a painless midline swelling of the neck. Uncommonly, these embryonal remnant cysts present clinically in adult life. The majority of adults with thyroglossal duct cysts present with a swelling at the level of the thyrohyoid membrane. On rare occasions, a thyroglossal duct cyst can present with more sinister symptoms, such as hoarseness, dysphagia and dyspnoea. On these occasions, the pre-operative clinical and investigative diagnosis remains in doubt until histology is available.

Abstract:

Heterotopy of the thyroid gland is very rare. It is characterized by the existence of an ectopic thyroid tissue in the presence of a normally localized thyroid. We report a case of heterotopic mediastinal thyroid in a 60-year-old woman who presented with swelling in the midline of the neck. Ultrasound of the neck showed a hypertrophic thyroid in its normal location associated with a similar lower cervical mass. A cervico-thoracic scan was subsequently requested for a better study.

The follicular tumours with nuclear features of papillary carcinoma are categorised as follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC). They exhibit biologic and molecular properties that are different from conventional papillary thyroid cancer. Solid encapsulated follicular variant of papillary carcinoma of thyroid is termed as Lindsay tumour. Since they are encapsulated, they follow an indolent course. We present a case of Lindsay tumour in a 34-year-old female, who presented with swelling in the neck for six months. She had no other specific complaints. On local examination of her

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Cystic lesions in the neck are common. It is customary to classify them as those arising in the midline and those in the lateral neck. Dermoid cysts are present along the lines of embryonic fusion and hence said to be occurring due to an embryonic accident during the development. Most common locations in the neck are the lateral end of eyebrows and the floor of the mouth in the midline. We present a rare case of dermoid presenting as a mass in the lateral aspect of neck. Our case is unique since even though it was a dermoid cyst, the presentation of the mass was in the upper lateral n
