A cervical bronchogenic cyst is a rare embryological anomaly of the primitive foregut, with an exceptionally uncommon occurrence in a suprahyoid location attached to the parotid tail. We report a case of an asymptomatic neck mass initially diagnosed as either a branchial cleft cyst or lymphangioma based on clinic-radiological investigation, which was subsequently confirmed as an ectopic bronchogenic cyst through histopathological examination.
颈支气管源性囊肿是一种罕见的原始前肠胚胎学异常,在附着于腮腺尾部的舌骨上区域发生极为罕见。我们报告一例无症状颈部肿块病例,根据临床影像学检查最初诊断为鳃裂囊肿或淋巴管瘤,随后经组织病理学检查确诊为异位支气管源性囊肿。
