We report on the appearance of parathyroid, thyroid, and cervical thymic cysts on computed tomography (CT) scans. The differential diagnostic considerations include thyroglossal and branchial cleft cysts, cystic hygromas, primary and metastatic tumors, dermoids, teratomas, choristomas, tracheoesophageal and cervical bronchogenic cysts, as well as cystic neuromas, abscesses, and lipomas. Most cannot be differentiated using CT alone and require clinical observations, laboratory testing, and surgical and histologic findings for definitive diagnosis. Our experience with these rare lesions is reported, and the differential diagnoses are discussed.
我们报告了计算机断层扫描（CT）上甲状旁腺、甲状腺和颈部胸腺囊肿的表现。鉴别诊断需考虑甲状舌管囊肿、鳃裂囊肿、囊性水瘤、原发性和转移性肿瘤、皮样囊肿、畸胎瘤、迷离瘤、气管食管囊肿和颈部支气管源性囊肿，以及囊性神经瘤、脓肿和脂肪瘤。大多数仅通过CT无法鉴别，需要结合临床观察、实验室检查以及手术和组织学检查结果来明确诊断。本文报告了我们对这些罕见病变的经验，并讨论了鉴别诊断。
