Median cervical cleft

ABSTRACT

There are very few reports about median cervical cleft in the literature. Unless there is an awareness of this condition this may easily be confused with other congenital conditions like infected thyroglossal tract and acquired conditions like tuberculous sinuses. In the last 20 years of paediatric surgical practice this is the first case that we have come across with typical features of median cervical cleft. The interesting findings of this case and review of literature are discussed
