Abstract

Cystic neck masses in adolescents pose a diagnostic challenge as they be neoplastic or non-neoplastic, congenital, inflammatory, or infectious. Detailed history and examination, anatomical location of the lesion may help narrow down the differential diagnosis of such masses. Cervical thymic cysts contribute to less than 1% cystic lesions in the neck. We present one such case and our management strategy.
