What is a thyroglossal duct cyst?
A thyroglossal duct cyst is a mass or lump in the front part of neck that is filled with fluid. While a baby is developing in the womb, the thyroid gland begins at the base of the tongue. Before birth the thyroid gland moves in the neck to its usual position below the thyroid cartilage and above the sternum. A portion of this path in which the thyroid gland moves may fill with mucus-like fluid, creating a thyroglossal duct cyst. The treatment of a thyroglossal duct cyst requires an operation performed by a surgeon trained in head and neck surgery.
Anything helps! Thank you all❤️
