What is a Neck Sinus?

A Neck Sinus is an abnormal passage or tract that opens onto the skin of the neck. It may be congenital (present from birth) or develop due to infections or trauma. The sinus may connect with deeper neck structures, such as lymph nodes or pharyngeal remnants, and can lead to chronic drainage or swelling.

Causes of Neck Sinus

  • Branchial cleft anomalies (most common congenital cause)

  • Thyroglossal duct remnants

  • Infected cysts or abscesses

  • Trauma or surgical complications

  • Chronic infections like tuberculosis or fungal infections

Symptoms of Neck Sinus

  • Swelling or lump near the jawline or below the ear

  • Pain, redness, or infection in the area

  • Fever (if infected)

  • Repeated abscess formation or foul-smelling drainage

Diagnosis and Evaluation

  • Clinical examination of the neck

  • Ultrasound or CT scan to assess the sinus tract

  • Sinogram (dye study) to trace the path of the sinus

  • FNAC or biopsy if infection or tumor is suspected
