Congenital cartilaginous rest of the neck in a boy

Abstract

Congenital cartilaginous rest of the neck is a rarely encountered entity that requires surgical excision. In this case report, we describe a 12-year-old boy with asymptomatic congenital cartilaginous rest of the neck. We also discuss the associated congenital malformations that dermatologists must be aware of when caring for patients with this disease.
