We have described second branchial cleft cyst in a 14-year-old boy emphasizing the diagnostic difficulties of this type of lesions and the clinical aspects as well as the details of surgical treatment. Branchial cyst should be remembered in the differential diagnosis of any lateral neck swelling, regardless of whether the swelling is solid or cystic, painful or painless, especially when it occurs in the first three decades of life. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: case study pictorial Journal Article ougenre: Article language: Turkish refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
