Thyroglossal cyst with intralaryngeal extension – An unusual case report

Thyroglossal duct cysts are the most prevalent congenital neck masses originating from thyroglossal duct remnants. Here, we present a case of thyroglossal dust cyst with hoarseness and difficulty breathing. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan confirmed the intra-laryngeal extension and airway compromise. Sistrunk procedure along with laryngeal reconstruction was done. Histopathology confirmed thyroid follicles in the cyst wall.

Abstract

Thyroglossal duct cysts are the most prevalent congenital neck masses originating from thyroglossal duct remnants. Here, we present a case of thyroglossal dust cyst with hoarseness and difficulty breathing. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan confirmed the intra-laryngeal extension and airway compromise. Sistrunk procedure along with laryngeal reconstruction was done. Histopathology confirmed thyroid follicles in the cyst wall.
