Cervical thymic cysts and parathyroid cysts.
Cysts which originated from embryonal remnants are often observed in the cervical region. Among these cysts, branchiogenic cleft cysts and thyroglossal cysts are most commonly encountered. Parathyroid cysts and cervical thymic cysts are known to be a rare entity. Reviewing the world literature of the latter two, only a few reports were noted.

متن کاملDiagnosis and Management of Cervical Thymic Cysts in Children
We present the case of a 10-year-old boy with the sudden onset of a large, painless left neck mass. Findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy suggest a cystic lesion, most likely of thymic origin. Cervical thymic cysts are a rare form of cervical mass, which are easily overlooked in the differential diagnosis of children presenting with painless neck m...
متن کاملRole of biochemistry and cytological analysis of cyst fluid for the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cysts
BACKGROUND Management of pancreatic cysts is based on neoplastic-nonneoplastic discrimination. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) enables to differentiate neoplastic-nonneoplastic lesions and also allows fine-needle aspiration (FNA). In this study, we aim to assess feasibility and clinical relevance of cytological and biochemical analysis in differential diagnosis of cystic pancreatic lesions in patie...

Patient was referred to our Service with acute thoracic pain and diagnosis of intramural hematoma of the ascending aorta for surgical correction. The diagnostic investigation showed a cystic tumor involving the ascending aorta causing restriction of the right ventricular inflow.

متن کاملCervical Thymic Cyst: A Rare Differential Diagnosis in Lateral Neck Swelling
Introduction. Thymic cysts are among the rarest cysts found in the neck. Nests of thymic tissue may be found anywhere along the descent of the thymic primordia from the angle of the mandible to the mediastinum. Mediastinal extension is seen in 50% of cervical thymic cysts. Case Report. We report an uncommon case of a 15-year-old male, who noted a painless, growing mass on left side of his neck ...
