Thyroglossal duct cysts are the most common congenital neck masses that develop during childhood. The masses develop from remnants of thyroglossal ducts and typically appear as midline neck masses. Double thyroglossal cysts and the complete failure of the obliterative process of thyroglossal duct are very rare in the literature. This manuscript describes a rare case of double thyroglossal duct, localized above the geniohyoid muscles affecting the floor of the mouth region and sublingual gland. The diagnostic criteria of the tumor and surgical procedure are discussed. To our knowledge, only 3 similar cases were reported in the literature.
甲状舌管囊肿是儿童期最常见的先天性颈部肿块。这些肿块由甲状舌管的残余组织发展而来,通常表现为颈部中线肿块。双甲状舌管囊肿以及甲状舌管闭塞过程的完全失败在文献中非常罕见。本文描述了一例罕见的双甲状舌管囊肿病例,位于颏舌骨肌上方,影响口底区域和舌下腺。文中讨论了该肿瘤的诊断标准和手术方法。据我们所知,文献中仅报道了3例类似病例。
