Cavernous hemangioma within a thyroglossal duct cyst
Thyroglossal duct cysts (TDCs) are the most common developmental abnormality of the neck, accounting for 70–75% of midline neck masses in children. Less commonly, TDCs can present in adulthood. Hemangioma is another benign tumor that can be found in the head and neck and commonly presents in childre...
