Bilateral oncocytic cysts of the nasopharynx.

T T Benke1, R P Zitsch, M B Nashelsky.   

Abstract

We describe a 59-year-old male patient noted to have bilateral oncocytic cysts of the nasopharynx. These cysts appear to represent retention cysts of peritubal mucoserous glands that have undergone oncocytic metaplasia and would be classified as lateral acquired cysts of the nasopharynx. These cysts are benign but may cause symptoms related to their location in the airway and proximity to the eustachian tube. Endoscopic surgical removal is the treatment of choice.
