Thyroglossal duct cyst carcinoma in a rare condition. Only around 250 cases of malignant thyroglossal cyst have been reported as far. We report a 45 years old women presenting with a painless swelling in the midline in the upper part of front of neck for 1 yr. This swelling moves with deglutition, multilobulated moves up on protrusion of tongue. FNAC revealed cystic lesion compatible with thyroglossal duct cyst. Ultrasonogram revealed mass is separated from thyroid gland. Patient underwent sistnmk's operation and tissue was sent for histopathological examination and report reveled papillary carcinoma of thyroglossal duct cyst.

Mass lesions of the head and neck in infants and children can be either developmental, inflammatory or neoplastic. Lymphomas (Hodgkin’s or Non-Hodgkin’s) commonly present as neck lumps in children. Although malignancy is not the commonest aetiology of paediatric cervical lumps, a high index of suspicion is critical to facilitate early diagnosis and treatment of cervical lesions. We present the case of a 15-year-old boy who presented with a solitary midline cervical lesion, which simulated a thyroglossal cyst on clinical examination. However, histopathological examination revealed it to be a Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Related literature is also reviewed.

Thyroglossal Duct

Thyroglossal duct cyst presents most frequently in the midline of the neck, either at or just below the level of the hyoid bone. They generally manifest as painless neck swelling, and they move on protrusion of tongue and during swallowing. A case of thyroglossal cyst was reported in the left submandibular region in a 14-year-old girl, above the level of hyoid bone; ultrasound examination favored a cystic lesion which moved in a vertical fashion on swallowing whereas fine needle aspiration cytology report was suggestive of simple cystic lesion of thyroglossal cyst. No lymphoid or malignant cells were present. The cyst was excised completely by surgical procedure under general anesthesia. Histopathological analysis revealed thyroglossal cyst showing columnar and flattened epithelium of cyst with focal aggregate of chronic inflammatory cells supported by fibrocollagenous cyst wall. The clinical, ultrasound, and histopathological findings suggested that the lesion was an infected thyroglossal cyst. There was no evidence of recurrence 6 months after surgery.

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.

Benign Case

Thyroglossal duct cyst is the most common upper neck midline lesion in children. Approximately 1% of thyroglossal duct cyst undergoes malignant transformation. Calcification which is a marker of malignancy almost always points out to papillary thyroid carcinoma. Benign case of calcified thyroglossal cyst maybe undiagnosed or under reported. We report a case of a 5 year old girl with a benign calcified thyroglossal duct cyst, a fourth case in world literature. Here the differences between a benign and malignant thyroglossal duct cyst are discussed.

Thyroglossal duct cysts are most commonly occurring congentinal midline swellling of the neck. Usually carcinomas in thyroglossal duct cysts is extremely rare, commonly known as papillary carcinomas. However, the diagnosis is only made postoperatively after excision of the cyst. Although the Sistrunk procedure is often regarded as adequate but controversies exist, the need for thyroidectomy is based on histopathological findings. This is a case report of 43-year-old male presenting with swelling in the midline of the neck for one year. On examination, a cystic swelling was present in the midline of the anterior aspect of the neck. Ultrasonography (USG) neck revealed heteroechoic cystic lesion with solid component and microcalcifications present within the cyst suggestive of thyroglossal duct cyst probably neoplastic. The mass was surgically excised and sent for histopathological examination and reported as thyroglossal duct cyst with papillary carcinoma of thyroid. Appropriate history, clinical examination and investigation leads to the correct diagnosis and treatment. Incomplete removal of the mass leads to recurrence. Histopathological examination is a must postoperatively. The patient is still on follow-up and no recurrence have been noted.

Thyroglossal Duct Remnant

Although a thyroglossal duct cyst is a congenital anomaly, it can also appear in adults. Despite the presence of embryological remnants, it is still unclear why the cyst should suddenly develop later in life. We report a case of a 46-year-old male with an extravasation mucocele arising from a long-standing lingual thyroglossal duct remnant. MRI demonstrated a lingual cystic lesion near the hyoid bone associated with a suprahyoid tract-like structure masquerading as a thyroglossal duct cyst. However, histopathological examination demonstrated a mucocele secondary to a rupture of a thyroglossal duct remnant with numerous intramural heterotopic salivary glands. We propose a new mechanism of an acquired cystic formation of this congenital disease that excessive production of mucus from heterotopic salivary glands and a physical trauma such as swallowing may lead to extravasation of mucus from the thyroglossal duct.
