[Observing effect of treatment of the second branchial fistula with endoscopic resection]
Objective:
To explore synergic effect of treatment of the second branchial fistula with endoscopic resection.
Method:
All patients of the second branchial fistula were scanned in neck with CT (computed tomography), we injected ioversol-320 from the entrance of the second branchial fistula in front of sternocleidomastiod into the second branchial fistula, then scanned the neck with CT (computed tomography), and rebuilding the picture of the second branchial fistula, to prepare for the operation. 9 patients of the second branchial fistula were operated under general anesthesia with endoscopic resection.
Result:
All of 9 patients were cured. no one recurred after follow-up of 6 months.
Conclusion:
It is minimally invasive and complete to resect the second branchial with endoscopic resection, the operation is simply and easy to promote.
