Can a hypoglossal duct cyst turn into cancer?

Q: i just went to the doctor today for a bump under my chin. He had told me that i had a Hypoglossal Duct Cyst. He explained that a hypoglossal duct cyst is when you are being developed, your thyroid travels from under your tongue, down a small canal down by your voice box, and on me that canal is filled with fluid creating the cyst. It is very very uncommon. My doctor has only seen this type of cyst 3 times out of 23 years of being a doctor, and said that out of 5000 people not one would have it nor know what it is, or even knew it could even exist. The cyst can either go away on its own, but it would take 4 to 6 weeks, or if it does not go down then removing it through the neck is what we would have to do. But i didn’t get to ask him if this cyst over time could become cancer or anything dangerous, because i really don’t want a scar on my neck if it doesn’t go away… So if anyone knows about these cysts, please help me out 🙂 thank you

A: Yea cancer can arise in these cysts, but its very unlikely, it happens only in 3% of cases they are called Thyroglossal cyst you can read more about em here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroglossal_cyst
