Abstract
1. 1. There is an entity called branchiogenic cyst carcinoma or malignant branchioma. 2. 2. Certain diagnostic criteria have to be satisfied before the diagnosis can be substantiated. The most important criterion is histologic proof of both branchiogenic cyst and carcinoma in the same specimen. 3. 3. Preoperative diagnosis and investigation should include complete examination of the oral cavity, pharynx and nasopharynx, larynx and cervical esophagus and the sinuses. 4. 4. Treatment should consist of total removal preferably by radical neck dissection or use of radiotherapy after total removal if neck dissection is not performed. 5. 5. Two histologically proved cases of branchiogenic cyst carcinoma are presented.
