Introduction: Thyroglossal duct cyst is an embryological congenital malformation of the thyroid gland and accounts for 70% of the congenital neck masses and approximately 7% of the population has thyroglossal tract remnants. Between 7 and 10 weeks of gestation, the thyroglossal epithelial tract obliterates. Failure of the thyroglossal duct tract to obliterate can result in the formation of thyroglossal duct cysts.
