Cervical teratomas are relatively rare congenital tumors pathologically defined by their three germ cell layer composition. Classically they manifest as solid or mixed solid-cystic lesions. Purely cystic teratomas pose a diagnostic challenge due to their clinical and radiologic similarity to lymphatic vascular malformations. Sclerotherapy, rather than operative excision, may be offered as therapy. We present an unusual cystic neck mass to highlight this dilemma.
