|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
|
Cysts of thoracic duct are uncommon. The most commonly involved site is the thoracic segment of the thoracic duct followed by the abdominal and cervical segments of the thoracic duct. To date, about 15 cases of cervical thoracic duct cysts have been described in the literature. Information regarding the natural history of these cysts and their pathogenesis is limited. The primary symptom and sign are generally a palpable soft left supraclavicular swelling. We report a case of cervical thoracic duct cyst with a review of literature.
