Thyroglossal duct cyst is most common type of congenital cervical tumor. The suprahyoid thyroglossal duct cyst is a subtype of thyroglossal duct cyst and has different clinical characteristics. This subtype shows recurrent submental swelling and no tumor movement during swallowing or tongue protrusion. Because of these clinical differences, it is important to consider the possibility of thyroglossal duct cyst of in diagnosis and surgery of submental tumor. Recently, we have experienced two cases of suprahyoid type thyroglossal duct cyst with submental swelling and treated successfully by Sistrunk's operation.

Midline neck masses have numerous origin and it is important to diagnose correctly for management. A clinical analysis of 29 cases of midline neck masses confirmed by histopathological examination was done retrospectively during the last 5 years. The results were followings; 1) Of 29 cases, thyroglossal duct cyst was most frequent(17 cases, 58.6%) and non-specific lymphadenopathy was the next(4 cases, 13.8%). 2) Midline neck masses were most frequent on the suprahyoid area(12 cases, 41.4%) and hyoid area was the next(7 cases, 24.1%). 3) Two thyroglossal duct carcinoma was included in 17 thyroglossal duct cyst. 4) Seventy percent of thyroglossal duct cyst was present on hyoid and infrahyoid area.

Thyroglossal duct cysts (TGDC) are the most common type of congenital developmental anomaly encountered in the anterior midline of the neck in childhood. The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of TGDC and identify any factors that could be related to recurrence after surgery. This study consisted of a retrospective chart review of 45 patients treated at Kyungpook National University Hospital for TGDC between 1990 and 2008. All records were reviewed for age and sex, length of history, presentation, diagnostic methods, sizes and locations of cyst, surgical management, histopathology of the lesion and recurrences. The statistical analysis of risk factors for recurrence was made using the Fisher's exact test with a significance level of p (0.05. The male to female ratio was 2.2:1 with a male preponderance. The mean age at operation was 5 years and 2 months (4 months - 17 years). The most common presenting symptom was a nontender cervical mass (78 %). Most TGDC were found in the midline position. Twenty four were infrahyold, 17 were hyoid, and 4 were suprahyoid level. Forty one (91 %) patients received the Sistrunk operation, and 4(9 %) patients received Cyst excision. Postoperative a seroma developed in six patients in the early postoperative days. There were a total of 3(6.6 %) recurrences, 2 in patients who had excision only and in one patient who had the Sistrunk operation. Univariate analysis for risk factors with recurrence showed that there was no statistical relationship between the presence of preoperative infection and the development of recurrence. The removal of hyoid bone along with TGDC was a statistically significant risk factor for recurrent disease. This study suggests that the Sistrunk operation Is the treatment of choice for TGDC in order to reduce recurrence.

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.
