[A incidence of cancer in the lateral side of the neck in a 65-year-old woman].
Branchiogenic carcinoma is a rare condition and should not be diagnosed in the absence of the criteria laid down by Dr Hayes Martin. The authors describe a 65 year-old woman with a cystic mass on the side of the neck. The woman was admitted to the hospital for possible branchial cyst. The histopathological analysis showed a carcinoma developed on a branchial cyst. The authors stress the importance of careful and repeated clinical examinations, which exclude the possibility of a primary tumor of other localization.
