ABSTRACT
Branchial cleft anomalies are congenital, arising from the first to the fourth pharyngeal clefts. The most common is a second arch anomaly. As it is congenital, it presents at birth though may become symptomatic later. The spectrum of anomalies includes sinus, cyst, or fistula formation or a combination of these. Here we present a case series based on first cleft anomalies. The principles of management include early diagnosis, excision of any fistulous tract, and prevention of injury to the facial nerve.
