The most frequent lesion was medial cyst of the neck, manifesting in almost 50% of patients. Lateral cysts, dermoid cysts and cystic hygroma were found in 25%, 10% and 8%, respectively. Although congenital in origin, clinical manifestation of medial cervical cyst occurs usually in preschool and particularly in school period (average 6 year).
