Anomalies in the development of branchial clefts can lead to four unique but closely related lesions namely cyst, external sinuses, internal sinuses and complete fistulas. These anomalies involving soft tissues of the neck are uncommon anomalies of embryonic development. They may be unilateral or bilateral but bilateral cases are rare accounting for 2%-3% of the anomalies. The diagnosis of these anomalies is made by imaging. We present a rare case of bilateral second branchial cleft sinuses in an 8 year old boy diagnosed using sinography and ultrasonography. |
