ABSTRACT
The branchial cleft anomaly is found in the cervical mass, rising usually from an incomplete obliteration of the branchial apparatus during fetal development. This anomaly might be confused with and mistaken for other potentially more serious lesion, such as cystic hygromas, teratomas, and lymphomas. The abnormality is typically revealed in the pediatric and adolescent population and is unilateral; bilateral manifestations are rare. We present a case of bilateral second branchial cleft sinus in a 21-year-old woman with a review of the literature.
