Branchial cleft cysts generally occur unilaterally at the lateral aspect of the neck. Bilateral branchial cysts are rare and may have familial associations. We report a rare case of non-syndromic bilateral branchial cyst in a 23-year-old woman who presented with chronic bilateral, progressively enlarging painless neck swellings. Complete surgical excision of the bilateral cyst was done. A histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis. Precise diagnosis with early and complete surgical excision of branchial cysts may help prevent recurrence and other complications.
鳃裂囊肿通常单侧发生于颈部外侧。双侧鳃裂囊肿罕见，可能与家族相关。我们报告一例罕见的非综合征性双侧鳃裂囊肿病例，患者为一名23岁女性，表现为双侧慢性、进行性增大的无痛性颈部肿物。对双侧囊肿进行了完整的手术切除。组织病理学检查确诊了诊断。对鳃裂囊肿进行精确诊断并早期完整手术切除可能有助于预防复发及其他并发症。
