%X Introduction :: Cysts of the thyroglossal duct are a congenital anomaly. they are common but the incidence of papillary carcinoma arising in a thyroglossal duct cyst (TDC) is rare. The clinical presentation of these cancers is generally nonspecific. There are usually identified only after histopathologic examination Aim: Modalities of treatment and prevention are discussed. Methods: We report 4 cases of a papillary carcinoma developed on a thyroglossal duct cyst, who underwent surgery. Two cases have been detected on pr¨¦op¨¦ratory and two at the definitive anatomopathology. Our therapeutic attitude has been discussed in each of our 4cases. Conclusion: there is no consensus about the modalities of treatment of papillary carcinoma in thyroglossal duct cyst.
