title: Is that another Thornwaldt's cyst on M.R.I.?
abstract: 20% of 200 M.R.I. head scans displayed increased signal in the midline posterior-superior nasopharynx in the position of the pharyngeal bursa. Though these likely represent a number of different entities, Thornwaldt's cysts may be more common than previously realised.
