title: Congenital midline cervical skin bridge: a case report.
abstract: A skin bridge extending from the hyoid region to the sternal notch in a 3-month-old baby is reported as another form of congenital midline neck anomaly that has never been described before. Congenital midline neck anomalies are residual embryonic structures that had failed to completely disappear or mature. They can be classified into masses, clefts, and fistulas. We report this case of congenital midline cervical skin bridge.
