Neck cyst - symptoms:

• Weakness
• Nausea
• Dizziness
• Vomit
• Intoxication
• subfebrile temperature
• lethargy
• Redness of the skin at the site of injury
• Increased temperature in the affected area
• Discharge of pus from a fistula
• General deterioration
• Swelling in the affected area
• Pain with pressure on the neoplasm
• Bump on the neck
• Inability to fully flex the neck
• Baby can't hold his head

Neck cyst - a tumor-like formation of a hollow type, which is located on the lateral or front surface of the neck, most often innate character, however, may be due to congenital fistula of the neck.

Lateral cysts are the result of a congenital pathology of the development of the fetus, while the median cyst of the neck in a child is diagnosed at the age of 4 to 7 years, and can often be asymptomatic. In half of the cases, the neoplasm suppurates, which leads to the emptying of the abscess and the formation of a fistula.

• Classification
• Symptoms
• Diagnostics
• Treatment
• Prevention

Treatment is surgical only. Puncture is used extremely rarely, since the accumulation of liquid or mushy mass occurs again after a while. According to the international classification of diseases, this pathological process belongs to other congenital anomalies of the face and neck. The ICD-10 code is Q18.

Causes of a neck cyst

Lateral or branchial cyst of the neck, in most cases, is a congenital pathology and is diagnosed at birth. This happens due to improper development of the gill slit and arches, the formation of a hollow neoplasm occurs at 4–6 weeks of gestation.

It should be noted that the lateral cyst of the neck is more dangerous than the median form, since in most cases, in the absence of timely treatment, degenerates into a malignant formation. Also, when growing, this form of a neck cyst can compress the nerve endings and nearby organs, which can lead to concomitant pathological processes. As well as other forms of hollow tumor-like formations, it can spontaneously open and lead to non-healing gill fistulas.

The median cyst in adults (thyroglossal) may be the result of such etiological factors:

• lymphadenitis;
• the development of the oncological process in the body;
• injury;
• infection.

In 60% of cases, the median cyst of the neck suppurates, which can cause impaired swallowing function and speech. In some cases, such a neoplasm spontaneously opens, which leads to the formation of a fistula.

The exact causes of the development of the pathology of the gill gap and arches during fetal development have not been established. However, clinicians identify such possible predisposing factors:

• genetic predisposition- if there is such a pathological process in the anamnesis of the parents or one of them, a similar clinical manifestation can be observed in the newborn;
• severe stress, constant nervous tension of the mother during childbearing;
• alcohol abuse and smoking;
• treatment with "heavy" drugs during pregnancy, especially in the early stages. This should include antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, painkillers, corticosteroids;
• systemic diseases in the mother;
• the presence of chronic diseases.

If a child has this symptom, you should immediately consult a doctor. It is extremely dangerous to ignore such a clinical manifestation, since there is a high probability of the neoplasm degenerating into a malignant tumor.

Disease classification

There are two main types of neoplasms on the neck:

• lateral or branchiogenic;
• median or thyroglossal.

Lateral cysts, in turn, are divided into:

• single chamber:
• multi-chamber.

Localization of cysts and fistulas of the neck

According to the structure and principle of education, the following forms of neoplasms are distinguished:

• dermoid cyst of the neck - refers to congenital pathologies, lies on the surface, is not attached to the pharynx. As a rule, such a neoplasm is filled with cells of the sebaceous and sweat glands, hair follicles;
• gill - located in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe bone under the tongue, consists of the epithelium of the pockets of the gills.

The following classification of neck cysts can also be used, according to the nature of education and localization:

• hygroma - a soft and smooth formation, which is located in the lower cervical region;
• venous hemangioma;
• primary lymphoma - a group of soldered compacted nodes;
• neurofibroma - motionless, dense in consistency formations, diameter from 1 to 4 centimeters;
• thyroid-lingual - can be localized in the larynx and neck, moves up or down during swallowing;
• fatty tumors.

Regardless of the etiology of the neoplasm, it is subject to surgical removal, since the risk of transition to a malignant form is almost always present.

Neck cyst symptoms

Some forms of neoplasm on the neck in children or adults long time may be asymptomatic. As the tumor grows, the following symptoms may be present:

• inability to fully flex the neck;
• on palpation of the neoplasm, pain is felt;
• the tumor is mobile, the skin is not changed, but redness is possible;
• the child cannot hold his head;
• weakness, lethargy;
• subfebrile body temperature, local temperature increase is also possible;
• signs of general intoxication of the body - nausea, vomiting, general malaise.

If the process of suppuration has begun, then the following symptoms of the clinical picture may be present:

• local redness of the skin, swelling;
• increased body temperature;
• weakness, dizziness;
• severe pain on palpation;
• purulent exudate flows out, less often into the oral cavity;
• the skin around the mouth may be covered with crusts.

If there are such clinical signs should be contacted immediately medical care. A purulent process can lead to an abscess, phlegmon and other life-threatening diseases.

It should be understood that the release of purulent exudate cannot be regarded as recovery and the exclusion of the need to see a doctor. The formed fistula never heals on its own, and the accumulation of fluid in the tumor almost always occurs again after a while. In addition, the risk of malignancy increases significantly.

Diagnostics

First of all, a physical examination of the patient with palpation of a cyst on the neck is performed. Also during the initial examination, the doctor should collect a personal and family history.

To clarify the diagnosis, the following laboratory and instrumental research methods can be carried out:

• puncture of fluid from a hollow formation for subsequent histological examination;
• blood test for tumor markers;
• neck ultrasound;
• fistulography;
• CT if necessary.

Are common clinical researches blood and urine, in this case, are not of diagnostic value, therefore, they are carried out only if necessary.

Neck cyst treatment

In this case, the treatment is only operable, conservative methods are not effective. The puncture is used only in the most extreme cases, when the operation is not possible due to medical indicators. Most often this applies to older people. In this case, aspiration of the contents of the tumor is carried out, followed by washing with antiseptic solutions.

As for the traditional removal of a neck cyst, such an operation is performed under anesthesia, excision can be carried out both through the mouth and externally, depending on clinical indicators. To prevent recurrence, excision is carried out together with the capsule.

Removal of lateral tumors is more difficult, since the neoplasm is localized near the vessels and nerve endings.

If the patient was admitted already with a purulent process and formation, then the tumor will be opened and drained, followed by removal of the fistulas. All fistulas, even thin and inconspicuous, are subject to excision, as they can cause a relapse. To clarify their localization, the surgeon may first inject a coloring agent (methylene blue, brilliant green).

After the operation, the patient is prescribed an anti-inflammatory and antibiotic therapy. You should also carry out regular dressings with mandatory processing. oral cavity antiseptic substances.

In the post-operative period, the patient should follow a diet that includes the following:

• for the period of treatment it is necessary to exclude sour, spicy and too salty, coarse food;
• drinks and dishes should be consumed only warm;
• dishes should be liquid or puree.

If surgical intervention will be carried out in a timely manner, the risk of recurrence or development of the oncological process is practically absent. Long-term rehabilitation is not required.

Prevention

Unfortunately, in this case, no effective methods prevention. It is strongly recommended not to self-medicate and consult a qualified doctor in a timely manner. In this case, the risk of complications is minimal.

What to do?

If you think that you have Neck cyst and symptoms characteristic of this disease, then doctors can help you: a surgeon, a therapist, a pediatrician.

The median cyst of the neck is a neoplasm localized on the front or side of the neck.

Initially, the tumor is benign, but there is a risk of its degeneration into cancer. Median cysts are attributed to congenital pathologies, they are often diagnosed in combination with a cervical fistula.

According to ICD-10, median cysts of the neck are assigned a code - Q18.

All materials on the site are for informational purposes only. In case of any suspicion of a disease, consult a doctor.

As already mentioned, pathology occurs as a result of an anomaly in the intrauterine development of the fetus. But despite this identifying a median cyst in a child is quite problematic.

According to some researchers, such a neoplasm appears due to incomplete overgrowth of the thyroid-lingual duct.

Reference! In the normal course of pregnancy, it should grow on its own before the eighth week. If this does not happen, then secretory fluid begins to accumulate in the resulting cavity.

But there is an opinion that the appearance median cysts neck provokes the growth of the epithelium of the bottom of the oral cavity. R. I. Venglovsky puts forward such a theory.

The danger of median neoplasms lies in the development of a purulent process which can be caused by the following factors:

• infectious and bacterial processes in the body;
• dental diseases;
• malfunctions of the immune system.

Symptoms of the disease

In the vast majority of cases, all types of neck cysts, in the first few years, develop asymptomatically. Most often, the tumor is detected between the ages of 5 and 10 years.. But there are times when a median cyst is first detected in adults. But this is rather an exception.

When the neoplasm begins to develop intensively, a small mobile ball appears on the neck. At the same time, the child does not have any pain sensations at this moment. But he may complain of a lump in the throat and discomfort when swallowing food.

In some cases, there may be a slight violation of speech, usually such symptoms are characteristic of neoplasms located near the root of the tongue.

With the development of a purulent process skin covering in the area of ​​the tumor swells and turns red. On palpation, cysts appear pain. The course of the pathology at this moment resembles an abscess.

If left untreated, after a certain time, a fistula may appear on the inflamed area, through which pus will seep.

Attention! The only way to get rid of a median fistula is through surgery.

Diagnostic Measures

First of all, to identify median cysts of the neck, the doctor performs a visual examination and palpation. Then to confirm the diagnosis, instrumental and laboratory studies are carried out. The main ones include:

• puncture of the cyst with subsequent examination of the fluid for cytology;
• Ultrasound of the affected area.

If median fistulas are detected, doctors additionally prescribe fistulography and probing.

During the diagnosis, it is important to differentiate the median cyst from lymphadenitis, thyroid adenoma, dermoid and specific inflammatory process and struma of the tongue.

Treatment of pathology

Surgical removal of median cysts of the neck is indicated in children with any size of the neoplasm.. And in adults, only if the tumor exceeds 10 mm in diameter. To prevent the recurrence of the pathology, the neoplasm is carefully excised along with the capsule.

The operation is performed under anesthesia. After excision of the tumor, the patient is sutured and a sterile bandage is applied.

In the presence of fistulas, surgery is also performed. But such an intervention is somewhat more complicated, since the fistula cavity has thin and tortuous walls. To facilitate the operation, 2 approaches are used:

• carry out probing;
• stain the fistula cavity with a special solution.

Important! Without removal of the fistula, there is a high risk of cyst recurrence.

With acute purulent process before the intervention, a course of treatment with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial drugs is carried out, after pumping out the purulent contents of the cystic cavity. In such cases, surgery is postponed for 1-2 months.

In case of serious contraindications to surgery, the patient undergoes a cyst puncture. But it is worth noting that this method of treatment is ineffective, since the risk of relapse is too high.

Consequences and complications

Lack of timely treatment can lead to serious problems with health. First of all, pathology is dangerous because there is a danger of infection. As a result, sepsis or a serious abscess may develop.

In addition, the tumor is prone to degeneration into cancer. Most often this occurs in the presence of median cysts of the neck in adult patients. And this already involves not only surgery, but also radiation or chemotherapy. And in such a situation, no doctor can guarantee a complete recovery.
