AB087. 192. Branchial cleft cyst—really?
Mesentery and Peritoneum2018Vol. 2, pp. AB087–AB087
Abstract
Background: Branchial cleft cysts may be difficult to distinguish from malignant cystic lesions of the lateral neck. While fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) has a sensitivity of 95% in diagnosis of solid head and neck lesions, the false negative rate in cystic lesions is as high as 67%. Our aims were to determine the incidence of malignancy in clinically diagnosed branchial cleft cysts and secondly, to determine the accuracy of preoperative investigations in their detection.
