Branchial cleft abnormality is a common congenital neck malformation in children, which is caused by the abnormal development of the gill sac or gill groove. It is mainly manifested as a cyst in the sinus tract and fistula in the neck, as well as branchio-oto-renal syndrome (BORS). As a rare autosomal dominant genetic disease, the typical manifestations of BORS are hearing loss, abnormal branchial cleft development and renal dysplasia. In this paper, a patient was admitted to the hospital for bilateral branchial cleft fistulas combined with bilateral anterior auricular fistulas, auricular appendix, auricle dysplasia, external auditory canal stenosis, and hearing loss. The patient was diagnosed with BORS, and underwent fistulectomy of the neck and anterior ear, external auditory canal formation, and tympanoplasty. The aim of this report is to strengthen clinicians’ understanding of BORS and reduce the rate of clinical missed diagnosis through our case report and literature review.

Collaural fistula is a very rare Work Type II first branchial cleft anomaly in which there is a complete fistulous tract between external auditory canal and the neck. Misdiagnosis and mismanagement can lead to prolonged morbidity and complications due to repeated infections. We present a case of an 18-year-old lady with a recurrent discharging sinus on her neck for 4 years. She has been treated with repeated incision and drainage and multiple antibiotics in the past. Otoscopic examination revealed an opening on the floor of the left external auditory canal. A diagnosis of an infected collaural fistula was made. Complete excision of the fistulous tract was done after treatment of the active infection. On follow-up, there was no further recurrence at 1 year. Sound knowledge of embryology of branchial anomalies with good history and examination is important to make correct and early diagnosis to prevent morbidity.
