What I was wondering the surgeaon that removed it, took it out from under his tougue
Is this the correct way to remove  a Thyroglossal duct cyst and get rid of it
Or was Sistruck procedure to be done My son has speech problems, is this something to do with not removing this correctly and he still has breathing problems and could it be to do with the paths tract and sinusthat should have been fixed too And should his thyroid be checked  
Family history: My sister had thyriod cancer

I would try posting to the pediatric endocrinology Dr. Patient forum.  Sorry, don't think that there is anyone on here who has the expertise to answer your questions (we're all just patients)
