Solitary nodal metastases presenting as branchial cysts: a diagnostic pitfall.

P S Hardee1, I L Hutchison.   

Abstract

Two patients with metastatic squamous cell carcinoma are presented. Both were initially clinically diagnosed as branchial cysts. The importance of a full examination of the upper aerodigestive tract, and fine needle aspiration cytology is emphasised to avoid the possibility of excision as a branchial cyst, which could lead to tumour dissemination.
