Abstract

An oral foregut cyst is a rare congenital choristoma lined by the respiratory and/or gastrointestinal epithelium. The exact etiology has not been fully identified,but it is thought to arise from misplaced primitive foregut. This lesion develops asymptomatically but sometimes causes difficultyin swal-lowing and pronunciation depending on its size. Thus, the firstchoice of treatment is surgical excision. Surgeons associated with head and neck pathol-ogy should include the oral foregut cyst in the differential diagnosis for ranula, dermoid cyst, thyroglossal duct cyst and lymphangioma in cases of pediatric head and neck lesions.
