A 2 yr old dog presented for dysphagia and coughing secondary to a 4 cm × 4 cm turgid subepiglottic mass. Cervical radiographs, an esophagram, and computed tomography confirmed the presence of a cystic mass that was not intimately associated with any surrounding structures. An incisional biopsy confirmed the cystic nature of the mass and helped to rule out a malignancy. A marginal surgical excision was performed via a ventral approach. Histopathology of the mass was consistent with a thyroglossal duct cyst. This is the first report of a thyroglossal duct cyst in this location in a dog. There was no recurrence of clinical signs 14 mo after surgery.
一只2岁的犬因吞咽困难和咳嗽前来就诊，病因是会厌下有一个4厘米×4厘米的肿胀肿块。颈部X光片、食管造影和计算机断层扫描证实存在一个囊性肿块，该肿块与周围任何结构均无紧密关联。切开活检证实了肿块的囊性性质，并有助于排除恶性肿瘤。通过腹侧入路进行了边缘性手术切除。肿块的组织病理学与甲状舌管囊肿一致。这是犬类中该部位甲状舌管囊肿的首例报告。术后14个月临床症状未复发。
