Question 42 (part 2) · LDEK · Cysts of the jaws
Choose location of cyst developing in the substrate of II gill arch, which corresponds to type III according to the Bailey’s classification, modified by Proctor:
- A. cyst adhering to the lateral pharynx wall, medially to large cervical vessels.
- B. cyst located under the superficial lamina of cervical fascia, towards the back of submandibular salivary glands, laterally from the carotid sheath.
- C. cyst located superficially alongside the anterior sternocleidomastoid muscle’s surface, below the platysma.
- D. cyst located alongside the internal and external carotid artery, reaching the lateral pharynx wall.
- E. cyst located between the intermediate tendon of omohyoid muscle and internal jugular vein.
Hint
Think of the track of a complete second branchial fistula from the neck to the tonsillar fossa – type III follows part of that route.
