Thyroglossal duct cysts are most common congenital anomalies in thyroid development and are usually presented with midline neck swelling. The co-existence of carcinoma in thyroglossal duct cyst’s is extremely rare. We, herein present a case of primary papillary carcinoma arising from thyroglossal duct cyst in a 45 year old woman.

Ectopic Tissue

Background: The ectopic thyroid tissue in thyroglossal cyst or suprahyoid swelling is one of most important differential to be diagnosed. The purpose of this study was to find out role of Technetium-99m Pertechnetate Thyroid Scintigraphy (TS) to detect functioning thyroid tissue in ectopic locations presenting as midline neck swelling.Methods: A retrospective observational study was done where 26 subjects presenting with midline neck swelling were included. These subjects were injected with 1-5MBq/kg of Technetium-99m Pertechnetate to perform the TS. The uptake of tracer in the midline neck swelling and in other ectopic location was assessed. The comparison with Ultrasound (USG) was also done.Results: 12 (46.15%) subjects presented with infra hyoid swelling and rest 14 (53.85%) presented with supra hyoid and submental swelling. 33.3% subjects presenting with thyroglossal duct cyst showed functioning thyroid tissue. Also 4 subjects showed dual functioning ectopic tissue. USG an TS showed concordant results for detecting thyroid tissue in ectopic location (p=0.68). However, TS performed better to detect ectopically located thyroid tissue (p=0.0086).Conclusions: USG and TS showed similar results to detect thyroid tissue in normal location. However, TS is better to detect topically located thyroid tissue. TS adds information of functioning thyroid tissue during workup of midline neck swelling.

Sistrunk Operation

Introduction: Thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC) is the most common form of congenital anomaly in the head and neck region with prevalence of 7%.  Embryologically the thyroglossal duct tract gets atrophied by fifth to tenth week of gestation. If it does not atrophied it results in TGDC and operation is the treatment of choice. However, in spite of standard surgical treatment there is recurrence of cyst. Eight percent of thyroglossal duct cyst may reoccur after adequate surgical excision. Objectives: To identify the recurrence of thyroglossal duct cyst after standard sistrunk’s operation. Methodology:  A retrospective chart review performed in  all the patients who were diagnosed with thyroglossal duct cyst and were managed by Sistrunk operation in B.P Koirala Institute of Health sciences, department of ORL and Head and Neck surgery from 2013 January1to 2015 December 31.The study was conducted on 37 patients’ age ranging from 4years to 68years. All the patients who had undergone Sistrunk’s operation and histopathologically diagnosed with thyroglossal duct cyst were analysed through hospital records. All records were reviewed for age, sex, location of cyst in neck and with relation to hyoid bone, postoperative complication and recurrence. Results: There was male predominance 67.56% and female only 32.43%.The most of the patients were between 1-15 yrs age group (48.64%).  Thirty two patients presented with   infrahyoid thyroglossal cyst and five patients with suprahyoid thyroglossal cyst. The post operative complications were in the form of wound dehiscence, haematoma, seroma, infection and there were two cases with recurrence out of thirty seven patients after Sistrunk operation in the form of persistence discharging sinus. Conclusion: A Sistrunk’s operation is effective in treating primary thyroglossal duct cyst with   a comparably low recurrence rate. The intraoperative rupture of cyst is the most important risk factors predicting postoperative recurrence of thyroglossal duct cyst. Meticulous dissection of the thyroglossal duct cyst is very essential  for the better surgical outcome.

<p>Thyroglossal duct cyst is a congenital lesion in the anterior side of neck which results from embryonic remnant of the descending thyroglossal duct. It may get enlarge by infection, inflammation or mucous retention but can be found anywhere in the midline from the base of the tongue to thyroid gland. Most commonly it is present infrahyoid only. In this case, it is present at an unusual site at suprasternal region. A young male presented in the OPD with a single, non-tender swelling in the midline at suprasternal region, almost reaching upto superior mediastinum. After radiological examination and histopathological excision biopsy, it came out to be thyroglossal cyst. No recurrence had occurred.</p>

Incomplete Closure

Thyroglossal duct cyst is a congenital malformation occurring due to incomplete closure of the thyroglossal duct. The infrequency with which it is encountered in thyroid makes it a formidable diagnostic challenge. Authors report this case because of the rarity of intrathyroid location of thyroglossal cyst.
