1 solitary thyroid nodule2 MNG3 thyroglossal cyst4 cervical lymph node

The diagnosis is usually established by observing a 1- to 2-cm, smooth, well-defined midline neck mass that moves upward with protrusion of the tongue. Routine thyroid imaging is not necessary, although thyroid scintigraphy and ultrasound have been performed to document the presence of normal thyroid tissue in the neck. Treatment

involves the "Sistrunk operation," which consists of en bloc cystectomy and excision of the central hyoid bone to minimize recurrence.1 Approximately 1% of cysts are found to contain cancer that is usually papillary (85%). Squamous, Hürthle cell, and anaplastic cancers also have been reported, but are rare. Medullary thyroid cancers are, however, not found in thyroglossal duct cysts.

I forgot to mention the relation to infection ...

Thyroglossal duct cysts present as midline masses of the anterior neck (Figure 25–4. ). Like branchial cleft cysts, they may be asymptomatic and only appear when they become infected in the setting of an upper respiratory tract infection...Current

thats a good was of practcisng but ur getting most questions statments wrong ,like there was never written a mass in midline moved wit hdegulttaion ,and i dnt think there is conncetion bw thyroglossal cyst and throat infection ,anywayz may be it was written midline i dnt rember exactly may be ur rite and one of the choice for the other question was pilonidal sinus tract and it was at 3 o clok position or it was the other question i dnt rember exactly
