Misplaced epithelium of nasolacrimal duct
Or epithelial remnants at line of fusion
()military and medial casal
processes
Nasoalveolar cyst is bi or unilateral?
Bi in 10% only
Most vommon developmental cyst of the neck?
Thyroglossal tract cyst
What could stimulate the thyroglossa duct remnants to transform into cyst?
Inflammation of neighbouring lymph nodes
And familial occurrence
Thyroglossal tract cyst can it transform to neoplasm
Yes
1% adenocarcinoma
Thyroglossal cyst clinically
Mention size
- moves with the tongue
- less than 3cm
Branvhial cleft cyst clinically
- could be bilateral
- ant to sternomastoid

-minor salivary gland
Like at the floor of the mouth
Palate
Buccal mucosa
Rare at lower lip
Teratoma
Tumor of one of the 3 germ layer cells
Choristoma
Normal tissue in abnormal location
Origin of detmold and epidermoid cyst
Entrapment of totipotent blastomere cells in midline between mandibular and hyoid branchial arches
Dermoid and epi dermoid clinically
- young age
- in midline of floor of the mouth if above geniohyoid muscle ==elevation of tongue and difficulty mustication and speech
- if below that muscle== submental swelling
