CIERI, Patricio; UDAQUIOLA, Julia E; CALELLO, Santiago E  e  LIBERO, Daniel H. Experience in thyroglossal duct pathology: clinical case series. Arch. argent. pediatr. [online]. 2016, vol.114, n.5, pp.e310-e313. ISSN 0325-0075.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5546/aap.2016.e310.

The thyroglossal duct cyst pathology represents the second cause of bening cervical anomalies in childhood. Diagnosis is mainly clinical. Sistrunk (1920) proposed a surgical technique that is still considered the gold standard for definitive treatment of this condition. A retrospective study was made including patients who underwent surgery for thyroglossal duct cyst pathology in our department between June 2008 and August 2015. In this period, we performed 54 procedures in 45 patients (39 primary cases). Median age was 4.7 years; 14/39 patients (31.1%) had pre-operative infection. All patients were studied with neck ultrasound. A Sistrunk's procedure was performed in all cases. The global recurrence rate was 17.8% (8/45).

Palavras-chave : Thyroglossal cyst; Cervical cyst; Sistrunk technique.
