The most common congenital cervical masses are thyroglossal cysts followed by branchial cleft anomalies. However, their synchronous presentation is uncommon. A man in his early thirties visited our ear, nose, and throat (ENT) outpatient department (OPD) with complaints of a three-month history of right-side neck swelling.

Research and knowledge in human embryology greatly progressed during the second half of the 19th century. This allowed optimization of surgical treatment of branchial deformities and cervical cysts in the light of their embryological development. In 1920, Walter Ellis Sistrunk described an embryologically-based technique for resection of thyroglossal duct fistulae and cysts.

Article Synopsis
- Neck masses, especially branchial cysts, are common and usually benign, but this case report describes a rare instance of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) mimicking a branchial cyst in a young woman.
- A 35-year-old woman had a slow-growing neck mass that was initially thought to be a branchial cyst but was ultimately diagnosed as metastatic PTC after further evaluation.
- The case emphasizes the need for careful examination and pathological assessment of neck masses, as they can sometimes indicate underlying malignancies.
Perioperative Outcomes of Branchial Cleft Sinus Tract Excision in Pediatric Patients Without the Use of Intraoperative Dye.

Background: Branchial cleft cysts are pediatric congenital anomalies that can present as sinus tracts to the neck. Intraoperative methylene blue dye with fibrin glue has been suggested as an effective tool for tracking the tract's depth to help definitively excise. In this large retrospective study of 118 patients spanning a decade, we aim to elucidate outcomes of branchial cleft anomaly excision without methylene blue dye.

This report presents a case of a six-year-old male patient with recurrent left-sided neck abscesses who presented four times over a span of two years. At each presentation, the child had developed left-sided neck swelling, pain, and fevers that required hospital admission. In the patient's most recent admission in 2020, a fourth branchial cleft anomaly was confirmed on CT, and the patient was taken to the operation theatre for ultrasound-guided aspiration and cauterisation of the sinus fistula tract under direct pharyngoscopy.
