    Journal: Ann Chir; 1996; 50(2):162-4. PubMed ID: 8762267.
    Abstract:
    A case of papillary carcinoma arising in the wall of a thyroglossal duct cyst is described. This is a rare occurrence (1% of cases). Controversies exist concerning its nature (cancer of the thyroid or primary cancer of the thyroglossal cyst) and its treatment (Sistrunk's operation alone or combined with thyroidectomy).
