Distinguishing Features

<p class="abstract">The features and presentation of thyroglossal duct cyst as a midline neck swelling are well known. We present two cases of intrathyroidal thyroglossal duct cyst who presented as a classical thyroid nodule. Distinguishing features, clinical work up, management, histopathological findings and literature review are presented. Intra-thyroidal thyroglossal duct cyst masquerading as a thyroid nodule is rare, and should be borne in mind in the differential diagnosis of solitary nodule of thyroid. Preoperative aspiration cytology findings of benign squamous cells should be a pointer towards the presence of intrathyroidal thyroglossal cyst.   </p>

Sistrunk Operation

ABSTRACT Papillary carcinoma arising in thyroglossal cyst is rare and is usually detected on postoperative histopathology after routine Sistrunk operation. Further management is a matter of debate and the choice lies between regular follow-up after Sistrunk operation or total thyroidectomy with or without radioiodine ablation and thyroxine suppression therapy. Here, we present a case of papillary carcinoma of thyroglossal duct cyst in a 26- year-old lady. Papillary carcinoma was detected after a routine Sistrunk operation was done for a seemingly innocuous thyroglossal cyst. A total thyroidectomy was carried 1 week later followed by hormone replacement therapy to suppress serum thyroid-stimulating hormone levels.

Needle Aspiration Cytology

Thyroglossal duct cysts most frequently present in childhood as painless midline swellings around the level of the hyoid. Classically the cyst moves upwards on protruding the tongue. Here we report a novel case of a thyroglossal cyst in an adult in whom the history, examination and fine needle aspiration cytology were typical of a traumatic haematoma. This case is also unique because the thyroglossal duct cyst extended beyond the thyroid gland to the suprasternal notch and actually required two parallel transverse cervical incisions for its complete en bloc removal.

Introduction. Thyroglossal duct cyst (TDC) is the most common cause of congenital neck mass. These can present anywhere from foramen caecum to mediastinum. Usually presents as a solitary cyst, the double thyroglossal cyst is very rare and a triple thyroglossal cyst has never been reported. Aim. Herein, we report an atypical case of triple thyroglossal cyst, at levels of hyoid, thyrohyoid membrane and thyroid isthmus managed surgically without any complication. Description of the case. We are presenting case of a 48-year-old female who presented to us with the complaint of anterior neck swelling since birth. On work up it was diagnosed as a case of the thyroglossal duct cyst and was intraoperatively found to have 3 distinct cystic swellings connected to a common stalk lying beneath the hyoid. It was successfully treated by modified Sistrunk’s procedure. There was no evidence of recurrence on follow up for 6 months. Considering atypical presentations, there are 9 cases reported with the double thyroglossal duct cyst, TDC within the thyroid gland and sublingual TDC. Such presentations make the diagnosis more challenging, leading to improper treatment. Conclusion. We are presenting this case as there is no case reported in English literature with a triple thyroglossal duct cyst. An awareness that thyroglossal cyst can present as multiple cysts is important for clinician in order to perform correct surgical management and to avoid the most feared complication of recurrence.
