The thyroid cyst is "H"-shaped, divided into two lateral lobes and a muscle wall connecting the lateral lobes. The two lateral lobes are located on the lower side of the larynx and the front sides of the bronchial neck, reaching the middle of the thyroid cartilage above, so they are the nearest neighbors of the thyroid cartilage.
