A Case of Congenital Midline Cervical Cleft Associated with Congenital Cardiac Anomaly / 대한피부과학회지

ABSTRACT

Congenital midline cervical cleft is a rare congenital anomaly of the ventral neck. Less than 100 cases have been reported in the literature. This anomaly is part of a spectrum of midline branchiogenic syndromes resulting from abnormal migration of cells derived from the branchial arches. It presents as a small skin tag superiorly with a linear, ventrically oriented atrophic patch. We present a case of congenital midline cervical cleft associated with congenital cardiac anomaly.
