    Area of Science:

    • Congenital deformities
    • Developmental biology
    • Surgical pathology

    Background:

    • Midline cervical cleft (MCC) is a rare congenital anomaly affecting the anterior neck.
    • Characterized by a skin lesion and underlying fibrous cord, MCC can lead to contractures.
    • The exact pathogenesis of MCC remains debated among researchers.

    Observation:

    • A unique case of MCC is presented.
    • This specific case demonstrated the coexistence of MCC with a thyreoglossal duct fistula.
    • This co-occurrence provides a novel perspective on MCC presentation.

    Findings:

    • The study details the clinical presentation and management of a rare congenital neck anomaly.
    • It documents the simultaneous occurrence of midline cervical cleft and a thyreoglossal duct fistula.

  • Surgical intervention involving excision and Z-plasty is the standard treatment for MCC.

    • Implications:

    • This case expands the understanding of midline cervical cleft's potential presentations.
    • It suggests a possible link or shared etiology between MCC and thyreoglossal duct anomalies.
    • Further research into the developmental pathways may clarify the pathogenesis of these coexisting conditions.
