Abstract
|
|
|
Second branchial cleft anomaly is the most common type of branchial anomalies. Tonsillitis can cause inflammation or infection through the cleft tract. We present an extremely rare case of a 15-year-old female with a tonsil sinus that caused a deep neck infection of the neck, showing a double-sinus opening. The patient was successfully treated with trichloroacetic acid chemocauterization.
