An intra-thyroid thyroglossal duct cyst (ITTDC) presented as a congenital anterior neck mass in a 10-year-old male. Diagnosis, work-up, management approach, and differential diagnosis of thyroid nodules are discussed, as well as distinguishing features between thyroglossal duct cyst (TDC) and branchial cleft cyst (BCC). This is the fourth case of ITTDC reported in the pediatric population, and ITTDC should remain in the differential diagnosis of pediatric neck mass.
一名10岁男性的甲状腺内甲状舌管囊肿(ITTDC)表现为先天性颈部前方肿块。本文讨论了甲状腺结节的诊断、检查、处理方法及鉴别诊断,以及甲状舌管囊肿(TDC)与鳃裂囊肿(BCC)之间的鉴别特征。这是儿科人群中报道的第四例ITTDC病例,ITTDC应始终保留在儿科颈部肿块的鉴别诊断中。
