Preauricular sinus, branchial cyst, branchial sinus and branchial fistula are the result of incomplete obliteration of branchial clefts. Classically these lesions have particular sites and nature. The aim of this three years retrospective study was to see the prevalence of these conditions as well as the outcome of the conventional surgery. Twenty cases of branchial cleft anomalies were reported, of which 60% had with preauricular sinus. One case with preauricular sinus had recurrence during postoperative follow-up.
