Lump On My 9mnth Old Son's Throat!!! Posted: 02-01-05 16:11pm
I recently took my son to the doc where a
fair size lump was discovered on his
throat the doc told me it was probably a
mucas cyst but ordered an ultrasound to be
sure, however at the ultrasound exam they
said it certainly did not feel like your
typical cyst because cysts usually have
fluid in them this did not. I have not
got the report from my family doc yet but
i'm very concerned, just wondering if
mabey anyone has heard of this or gone
through anything similar to this ....Thnx
for reading .

I just wanted to fill you in, I have found
out what the lump was...The medical term
is a thyroglossal duct cyst. It happens
in about the 5th to 8th week of pregnancy
and can be removed, needless to say i'am
relieved to know it is not some kind of
tumor...Thank you for reading

Hello I have noticed that you posted this
a while back. I recently became a member
after I discovered that this website
existed. I was hoping that you or anyone
can give me some insight on the recovery
of surgery from a thyroglossal duct cyst.
My 8 year old daughter is due to have
surgery on jan 8, 2007. Im so worried
and concerned. Did your baby boy have
the surgery to remove his cyst? If so,
how was his recovery. Thank you for your
information.
