The thyroglossal cyst is the most common nonodontogenic cyst in the neck. This cyst may also occur in the lingual or submental areas, though more rarely. Malignant changes have been described. Clinically, no differentiation between a benign cyst and a malignancy can be made. The literature is reviewed regarding the embryology, epidemiology, etiology, symptomatology, radiology, histology, and treatment of this cyst and its malignant counterpart.
甲状舌管囊肿是颈部最常见的非牙源性囊肿。该囊肿也可发生于舌部或颏下区域，不过较为少见。已有恶变的报道。临床上，无法鉴别良性囊肿与恶性病变。本文就该囊肿及其恶变对应物的胚胎学、流行病学、病因学、症状学、放射学、组织学及治疗方面的文献进行综述。
