Branchial cleft cysts are congenital anomalies that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any neck mass. Being a developmental anomaly of the branchial apparatus, they demonstrate diverse localizations and clinical manifestations. Treatment includes complete surgical excision, which is largely facilitated by the appreciation of their embryological and anatomical features. In this paper, seven cases with branchial cleft cysts are presented. Of these, three were males, and four were females, with ages ranging between 8 and 35 years. Three patients had first, and four patients had second branchial anomalies. Diagnoses were made by ultrasonography and fistulography in four and three patients, respectively. Recurrence was observed only in one patient.
