저자들은 1982년부터 1987년까지 5년간 서울대학교병원 이비인후과에서 경험한 21예의 갑상설관 낭종에 관한 임상적 관찰을 하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 발현 연령은 출생시부터 43세로 다양하였으나 21예중 10례가 10세 이전에 발생하였다. 7예에서는 경부종괴가 주소였으며 4예에서는 누공이 주소이었다. 낭종은 대부분 정중선에 위치하였으며 설골 하부에 위치한 예가 17예이었다. 전례에서 설골 중앙부를 포함한 전 병소를 제거하였으며 현재까지 재발된 예는 없었다.

Thyroglossal duct cyst is the most common congenital neck mass. It develops from remnants of precursors of thyroid gland left behind during embryologic descent form the foramen cecum at the tongue base into the anterior neck during fetal development. An anterior midline neck mass presenting before the age of twenty and displaying vertical movement with tongue protrusion and swallowing is characteristic of this lesion. In this paper, we report on a case of TGDC without remnant duct that is presenting as thyroid cyst.

Thyroglossal duct cyst(TGDC) is the most common midline congenital neck mass in children. However, carcinoma arising from TGDC is very rare and most of them are found in adults. In this report, we describe a 9-year-old child presenting with TGDC, which finally turned out to be papillary thyroid carcinoma. He underwent Sistrunk operation only. We review the literature and highlight the important points of the treatment.

Thyroglossal duct cyst is a congenital anomaly generally appearing as an asymptomatic midline neck mass. Generally, the duct cyst is benign, but 1 percent of cases may be malignant. These present the same histologic types as thyroid carcinomas. The most common pathologic type is papillary carcinoma. Regional lymph node metastasis of papillary carcinomas in thyroglossal cyst occurs in 7.7 percent of cases. Prognosis of papillary carcinoma is excellent. The treatment has been quite variable, but the most common initial treatment is Sistrunk's operation. Adequate excision of cyst and its tract including the mid-portion of the hyoid bone is the treatment of choice. We experienced two cases of papillary carcinoma arising in thyroglossal duct cyst between 1986 and 2002.

A lingual thyroglossal duct cyst(LTGDC) is a rare congenital anomaly that account for only 0.5% to 2% of total thyroglossal duct cyst. LTGDC is frequently associated with respiratory problem in infants and pharyngeal foreign body sensation or dysphagia in adults. Because of its location and characteristics, lingual thyroid, dermoid cyst, and vallecular cyst should be included in differential diagnosis. Standard treatment for thyroglossal duct cyst is sistrunk's operation, but in terms of LTGDC, because of its location and cosmetic reasons, different kinds of treatments such as electrical cauterization, $CO_2$ laser, Robort surgery via transoral approach have been introduced. Recently authors encountered 21 years old woman with LTGDC and the mass was removed successfully via transoral approach using $CO_2$ laser. We report the clinical course with review of the literature.

A thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC) is the most common congenital anomaly of the neck. However, carcinoma arising from TGDC is extremely rare. We report 2 cases of TGDC carcinoma. In the first case, a 21-year-old male patient complained of an anterior cervical mass; computed tomography (CT) and sonography revealed cystic mass that was suspected to be a TGDC. Sistrunk operation was performed. Papillary carcinoma was confirmed in pathologic examination. Additionally, he underwent total thyroidectomy and central neck dissection. After radioactive iodine ablation (RAI) was performed. In the second case, a 28-year-old male patient visited our out-patient department complaining of submental mass. He had already been diagnosed TGDC carcinoma 13 years ago and had undergone Sistrunk operation and total thyroidectomy. Malignancy was confirmed using fine-needle aspiration; thus, lateral neck dissection was performed and following this, he underwent RAI. Till date, no evidence of recurrence has been observed in these patients.

An intrathyroid thyroglossal duct cyst (TGDC) presented as an anterior neck mass in a 62-year-old male without history of prior thyroid disease or infection. This cyst was clinically indistinguishable from a thyroid nodule. In addition to that, fine needle aspiration cytology revealed normal-looking squamous cells. Diagnosis, work-up, management approach, and treatment of intrathyroid TGDC are discussed as well as distinguishing features between intrathyrod TGDC with tract and without tract. This is the very rare case of intrathyroid TGDC in Korean population and the possibility of intrathyroid TGDC should remain in the differential diagnosis of thyroid nodule.

갑상설관 낭포는 선천적으로 갑상설관의 잔류물에 기인하여 발생하는 비교적 드문 질환의 하나로 설저에서 갑상선에 이르는 갑상설관의 경로중 어디서나 발견된다. 1961연부터 1980연까지 20연간 국립의료원 이비인후과에 입원, 근치수술을 받은바 있는 62례의 환자를 대상으로 임상적 및 병리조직학적 조사결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1) 연령분포상 62례중 20세미만이 45례(72.6%)로 대부분이며, 초기증상 발현시기는 10세미만이 36례(58.0%), 병역기간은 1년미만이 23례(37.0%)로 많고, 남여비는 1.2 : 1이다. 2) 증상은 48례(77.4%)에서 낭포촉지, 14례(22.6%)에서 루관을 통한 분필물, 그 외 연하장애 등이 있었다. 3) 위치는 88.7%가 정중위, 1.6%가 우측위, 9.7%가 좌측위며, 설골직하부가 75.8%, 설골직상부가 17.7%, 음저부가 1.6%, 흉골상부가 4.8%이였다. 4) 루관형성 27례중 생후 자연발생이 7례, 인위적발생이 20례이었다. 5) 병리조직학적으로 조직 Slide가 보존된 41례중 5례(12.2%)에서 단일관, 20례(48.8%)에서 다발성이었고 16례(39.0%)에서 관구조를 발견할 수 없었고, 내면상피는 호흡상피와 편평상피가 주되며, 염증반응은 15례에서 루관주위, 7례에서 낭주위에 보였으며 이행성 갑상선조직은 6례(14.6%)에서 발견되었으며, 1례에서 follicular adenoma가 있었다. 6) 술후재발은 Siskrunk type operation을 한 43례중 2례(4.6%), 단순제거술만 시행한 19례중 4례(21.1%)이었다.
