Abstract
Parapharyngeal space cysts, besides salivary gland origin may be deriv ed from the first and dorsal portions of the second pharyngeal pouches . They are mucosal or epethelial lined structures with no external or visceral opening and always present on the lateral aspects of the naso pharyngeal wall. Two consecutive cases of parapharyngeal space cysts t otally excised by transoral and transparotid routes are presented.
