Thornwald's cyst is a benign bursa formation of the posterior superior wall of the rhinopharynx due to occlusion of the pharyngeal bursa, this entity has been known for more than a century but it is only exceptionally observed. A series of 3 cases have been diagnosed at Hôpital Saint-Antoine over the last 6 months and the perfect visualization of the cysts by CT scan and MR imaging wall no doubt allow their fortuitous detection more frequently.
索恩瓦尔德囊肿是由于咽囊闭塞在鼻咽后壁形成的良性滑囊，这一实体已被知晓一个多世纪，但仅偶尔被观察到。在过去6个月里，圣安托万医院诊断出了3例病例，CT扫描和磁共振成像对囊肿的完美显影无疑会使它们更频繁地被偶然发现。
