    AbstractThe second branchial cleft cyst lacks typical symptoms, and its clinical manifestations are complex and varied. Among them, the second branchial cleft cyst manifested by sleep snoring is relatively rare, and it can easily lead to missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis.

The branchial cleft cyst was removed using an endoscopic branchial cleft.Copyright © 2021 the Author(s). Published by Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
