my brother has a lump on the right side of his neck that gets bigger and smaller. he had a ct scan and it showed stuff in his head and throat. what could it be. is there a chance that its nothing serious ? what could it be? if its cancer< is it curable? thank you
Hello! Thank you for the query. Most likely your brother has a bronchial cleft cyst. It's a kind of cyst caused by a kind of mistake in the embryonic development. It can get smaller and bigger. In some cases it can get infection. Usually it is benign lesions and can be treated with surgical removal. I suggest your brother to consult a palynologist with this issue. Hope this will help. Regards.
