Abstract
Branchial cleft anomalies are well described, with the second arch anomaly being the commonest. Remains of cervical sinus of His may persist as a branchial cyst. A branchial sinus is formed when 2nd branchial arch fails to meet the 5th pharyngeal arch. Peak age for presentation of branchial cysts is in the third decade and that of the congenital sinuses and fistulae is at birth. The association of a branchial cyst with branchial sinus is very rare. We are presenting two cases had branchial cyst along with branchial sinus. It was managed successfully with complete excision. Histopathological examination confirmed the association. Keywords: Branchial Sinus, Branchial cyst,
