Thyroglossal duct cysts (TDC) in children have a variable sonographic appearance. Some reports have suggested that TDCs appear on ultrasound as well defined, cystic masses with thin walls and posterior enhancement, whereas others have documented a heterogeneous echopattern within these lesions. In our experience, although TDCs in children have a variable ultrasound appearance, the most common appearance is that of a pseudosolid mass closely related to the hyoid bone. In this study we report on 23 patients with thyroglossal duct cysts and document the ultrasonic patterns.
