Bilateral Cervical Chondrocutaneous Remnants: A Case Report
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Cervical chondrocutaneous remnants are uncommon congenital lesions which may be unilateral or bilateral. Although the clinical characteristics of these lesions are well described, their embryological origin is debated. Treatment of these lesions are complete excision, but before the excision, clinicians must consider that these lesions are associated with several anomalies and malformations. We report a 25 year old man presenting with bilateral cervical chondrocutaneous remnants who has no malformations or anomalies. Complete surgical excision was carried out without any complication or recurrence. Keywords: Branchial arch anomalies, Cervical, Chondrocutaneous remnant, Neck
