  • Title: Second branchial cleft-pouch set fistulae, sinuses and cysts in children.
    Author: Vermeire VM, Daele JJ.
    Journal: Acta Otorhinolaryngol Belg; 1991; 45(4):437-42. PubMed ID: 1767677.
    Abstract:
    A perfect understanding of the embryology of the branchial apparatus and the cervical anatomy is absolutely essential for the classification and treatment of branchial fistulae, sinuses and cysts, particularly with respect to those of the second cleft-pouch set. Some of our recent cases provide evidence of the need for precise dissection, a condition sine qua non to avoid surgical failures.
