We report on a large branchiogenic cyst in a neonate. The etiology of these cysts is assumed to be of branchial origin because of their communication with the pharynx and their intimate association with the thyroid and thymus glands. This report documents an additional occurrence of this rare lesion. Physicians are alerted to the fact that, should massive enlargements and compromise of the respiration be present, external decompression of these cysts is feasible.
我们报告了一例新生儿的巨大鳃源性囊肿。由于这些囊肿与咽部相通且与甲状腺和胸腺关系密切,其病因被认为源于鳃裂。本报告记录了这种罕见病变的又一病例。医生们应注意到,如果出现囊肿的巨大增大并影响呼吸,对这些囊肿进行外部减压是可行的。
