Abstract
A 23-year-old female with a large pharyngeal cyst extending to the parapharyngeal space is reported. Since the presumptive diagnosis by diagnostic imaging and cytology was benign cyst, marsupialisation was performed microscopically. After the resection of the anterior wall of the cyst, several sutures were placed around the periphery to join the cyst wall to the pharyngeal mucosa. Twenty months later there is no sign of recurrence of the cyst. Diagnostic imaging was useful in determining the operation method.
