We report a case of congenital heterotopic salivary gland with draining sinus in the lower neck on the right side of a 10-year-old female, which we initially thought to be a branchial fistula. Heterotopic salivary glands are rare lesions in the neck and when present appear very similar to branchial cleft sinus or fistula. This congenital lesion is rare. This is probably the first report from India. It is important to report this case to raise the awareness of this condition.
我们报告了一例10岁女性右侧下颈部先天性异位唾液腺伴引流窦道的病例,我们最初认为这是一个鳃裂瘘管。异位唾液腺在颈部是罕见的病变,出现时与鳃裂窦道或瘘管非常相似。这种先天性病变很罕见。这可能是来自印度的首例报告。报告此病例以提高对这种疾病的认识很重要。
