抄録

  Thyroglossal duct cyst carcinoma is rarely seen in children. Only 23 cases have been reported in the English literature so far. We report here a case of thyroglossal duct cyst carcinoma in a 12-year-old boy. He complained of a 3-cm diameter tumor in the right submental region. CT examination revealed a low density mass with calcification. Initially, we diagnosed this condition as papillary carcinoma of the thyroid gland with lymph node metastasis. The resected tumor was close to the hyoid bone and looked like a papillary carcinoma. However, because no tumor was observed in the thyroid gland, we considered this case a thyroglossal duct cyst carcinoma.
