  • Title: Differential diagnosis of a lateral cervical cyst and solitary cystic lymph node metastasis of occult thyroid papillary carcinoma.
    Author: Nakagawa T, Takashima T, Tomiyama K.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 2001 Mar; 115(3):240-2. PubMed ID: 11244539.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of solitary cystic lymph node metastasis from an occult thyroid papillary carcinoma mimicking a lateral cervical cyst, and a case of thyroid papillary carcinoma with a true lateral cervical cyst. Based on a comparison of the radiographical findings of the two cases, differential diagnosis between cystic lymph node metastasis of papillary carcinoma and branchial cyst is discussed.
