A case report of bilateral cervical chondrocutaneous remnants with review of the literature

Abstract Cervical chondrocutaneous remnants are very rare entities. They are thought to originate either from the second branchial arch or from auricular tissues. To date, less than 40 cases have been reported in the medical literature, and only 7 cases were bilateral. We report the case of a 1-month-old girl presenting with bilateral neck lesions since birth, with no other anomalies. Complete surgical excision was performed, the pathology of which confirmed the diagnosis of chondrocutaneous remnants. Follow-up after 9 months showed no clinical evidence of complications or recurrence.
