Abstract
Branchial cleft cysts are congenital epithelial cysts, which arise on the lateral part of the neck. They may not present clinically until later in life. Surgical excision is a definitive treatment for branchial cleft cysts. This article presents the clinical report where the big inflamed cysts were excised under local anesthesia. It also presents guidelines for minimally invasive surgery under local anesthesia, which can be used in adequately selected cases.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Craniofacial Surgery serves as a forum of communication for all those involved in craniofacial surgery, maxillofacial surgery and pediatric plastic surgery. Coverage ranges from practical aspects of craniofacial surgery to the basic science that underlies surgical practice. The journal publishes original articles, scientific reviews, editorials and invited commentary, abstracts and selected articles from international journals, and occasional international bibliographies in craniofacial surgery.
