Three Cases of a Lymphoepithehal Cyst

Abstract

We reported three cases of a lymphoepithelial cyst arising in the cervix. Case 1 was a 33-year-old female with a mass in the right submandibular region. Case 2 was a 40-year-old male with a mass in the right lateral cervical region inferior to the auricula. Case 3 was a 48-year-old female with a mass in the left lateral cervical region. The initial examination using ultrasonography and CT scan revealed a cyst in each case and thus the lesions were diagnosed as a lateral cervical cyst. These cysts were extirpated and pathological diagnosis of a lymphoepithelial cyst was obtained. Follow-up examination has shown no evidence of recurrence.
