What is the most likely diagnosis?
A, Dermoid cyst
B. Ectopic thyroid gland
C. Lipoma
D. Thyroglossal duct cyst
E. Branchial cleft cyst.
Answer And Discussion:
D Thyroglossal duct cyst
Normally Thyroglossal duct cyst disappears during development of thyroid gland but in some cases the duct remains in the neck and forms a cyst. It appears in the midline of the neck and is painless. Surgery is recommended to prevent infection if the CT scan shows a normal thyroid gland and thyroglossal duct cyst attached to it. All other options are possible causes but they are less common than the thyroglossal duct cyst.

ReplyDeleteHave been totally convinced that HIV,and many others dangerous diseases can be best cured using the Herbal Medicine. Dr.Akpu the great and powerful herbalist cured me with his Herbal remedy. I'm Linda,15 years from Texas. I was born with HIV. I lost parents at my teenager age when I was 4th. I had to grew up with my mum only Sister, whom I loved so much. She was so worried about my life as my condition was her mature problem in life. I had taken lots of antiviral treatment to get ride of the virus not believing what there said HIV has no cure. I was on the internet when i came across blogs of testimony about a lady who where cured of a 7 years diagnose of Herpes by this powerful Herbalist, Dr.Akpu.I wrote down his mail @ Dr.akpupowerherbscenter@gmail.com
I told my Aunt,luckily it was the same Dr,we where referred to few months back by my pastor in church whom members have being testifying about of his cure We did contacted him and explained my problem to him.He prepared the medicine and sent to me with details of how to use and apply. After a while, I began to feel more strong than never before, I felt so lucky and happy when my Doctor congratulated me that he could found no HIV virus again in me. I knew I was free cos my body was so strong. His herbal medicine should have saved my parents life, i said!
