Abstract

In this article, we report a rare case of a cervical cystic vagal schwannoma mimicking a type 3 second branchial cleft cyst clinically, radiologically and cytologically. Although schwannoma is rare, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of cystic neck masses. This article suggests that Doppler ultrasonography, computed tomography and fine needle aspiration biopsy findings may not be sufficient to provide the correct preoperative diagnosis of cystic lateral neck masses and further imaging techniques may be required.

Özet

Bu yazıda, klinik, radyolojik ve sitolojik olarak tip 3 ikinci brankiyal yarık kistini taklit eden nadir bir servikal kistik vagal schwannom olgusu sunuldu. Schwannom nadir olmasına rağmen, kistik boyun kitlelerinin ayırıcı tanısında akılda tutulmalıdır. Bu yazı, kistik lateral boyun kitlelerinin ameliyat öncesi doğru tanısını koymak için Doppler ultrasonografi, bilgisayarlı tomografi ve ince iğne aspirasyon biyopsisi bulgularının yeterli olmayabileceğini ve daha ileri görüntüleme tekniklerinin gerekebileceğini önermektedir.
