Abstract

Congenital Midline cervical cleft is a rare congenital anomaly of the neck. So far, around 205 cases are reported in literature. We report the case of a 9-month-old infant who presented with congenital midline cervical cleft. He was managed with excision of tract and reconstruction with double z-plasty. Early recognition and optimal surgical reconstruction can provide better cosmetic and functional results.
