Cysts, fistulas, and sinuses of the second branchial cleft are the most common developmental anomalies arising from the branchial apparatus. In our case, a 43-year-old man presented with a several-year history of a discharging sinus from the right side of his neck, consistent with a branchial fistula. He underwent various investigations and finally was treated with a one-stage complete surgical excision of the fistula tract. We describe the general clinical presentation, investigations, and surgical outcome of this case.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/014556131008900804","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,1,10]],"date-time":"2019-01-10T03:15:50Z","timestamp":1547090150000},"page":"E16-E18","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Report of a Complete Second Branchial Fistula"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"89","author":[{"given":"Mohammad Habibullah","family":"Khan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Professorial Unit of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, St. Vincent University Hospital, Dublin."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Heitham","family":"Gheriani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Professorial Unit of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, St. Vincent University Hospital, Dublin."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Aongus James","family":"Curran","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Professorial Unit of Otorhinolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, St. Vincent University Hospital, Dublin."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2010,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archotol.1976.00780170055008"},{"key":"bibr2-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/019459989110500107"},{"issue":"2","key":"bibr3-014556131008900804","first-page":"407","volume":"35","author":"Bhaskar SN","year":"1959","journal-title":"Am J Pathol"},{"key":"bibr4-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.134.5.1067"},{"key":"bibr5-014556131008900804","first-page":"754","volume-title":"Head and Neck Imaging","author":"Zadvinskis DP","year":"1996"},{"issue":"1","key":"bibr6-014556131008900804","first-page":"121","volume":"19","author":"Koeller KK","year":"1999","journal-title":"Ra-diographics"},{"key":"bibr7-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348940111001116"},{"key":"bibr8-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiology.152.3.6463255"},{"key":"bibr9-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02011324"},{"key":"bibr10-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1288\/00005537-197209000-00001"},{"key":"bibr11-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archsurg.1929.01150030045003"},{"key":"bibr12-014556131008900804","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0901-5027(96)80081-6"}],"container-title":["Ear, Nose &amp; Throat Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/014556131008900804","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1177\/014556131008900804","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,28]],"date-time":"2026-04-28T18:36:02Z","timestamp":1777401362000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/014556131008900804"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2010,8]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"8","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2010,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1177\/014556131008900804"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/014556131008900804","relation":{},"ISSN":["0145-5613","1942-7522"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0145-5613","type":"print"},{"value":"1942-7522","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2010,8]]}}}
