Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma with Cystic Cervical Metastasis Masquerading as Branchial Cleft Cyst: A Potential Pitfall in Diagnosis and Management
Introduction:Most metastatic lymph nodes from head and neck malignancy are solid. Cystic nodes are found in 33% - 61% of carcinomas arise from Waldeyer’s ring, of which only 1.8% - 8% originate are from the nasopharynx. Some cystic cervical metastases were initially presumed to be branchial cleft cyst. This case report aims to highlight the unusual presentation of cystic cervical metastasis sec...
متن کاملPrimary papillary carcinoma originated from a branchial cleft cyst

Here we report a 41-year-old woman with papillary carcinoma originating from a right lateral branchial cleft cyst without any evidence of a papillary carcinoma in the thyroid gland.

متن کاملBuilding a better mousetrap: the diagnosis of metastatic cervical adenopathy.
Technologic limitations are sometimes a boon. Whether in medicine or in other areas of science, limitations prompt a search for new and improved solutions. In surgical oncology, once techniques for removal of tumor-bearing cervical lymph nodes became part of standard medical practice, it was important to identify those nodes preoperatively. Clever minds have devised many approaches, but the lar...
متن کاملLateral cervical cyst with unsuspected metastasis from an occult tonsillar carcinoma.
Lateral cervical cysts containing squamous cell carcinoma is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for the clinician since they usually represent a cystic metastasis from an occult carcinoma. Various imaging modalities or even blind biopsies will help identify the primary tumour.
