Laparoscopic Resection of an Intradiaphragmatic Bronchogenic Cyst

BACKGROUND A 43-year-old woman with recurrent hiccup and discomfort in the right upper abdomen was diagnosed by computed tomographic (CT) scan with a cystic tumor in the right liver. Echinococcus serology was negative. METHODS A laparoscopic procedure was chosen as standard therapy for symptomatic cystic liver tumors. The presumed tumor turned out to be a diaphragmatic cyst 8 cm in diameter a...

Bronchogenic cyst in the intradiaphragmatic location.

Bronchogenic cysts are congenital foregut malformations thought to develop due to abnormal budding of tracheal diverticulumand proximal bronchial structures during embryologic development. The cyst is lined by ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelium and the wall contains cartilage and layers of smooth muscle. These lesions most commonly are seen in the mediastinum, lung, or pleural spaces...

Imaging findings of intradiaphragmatic bronchogenic cyst: a case report.

Isolated intradiaphragmatic bronchogenic cysts are extremely rare. Here, we report a case of intradiaphragmatic bronchogenic cyst with calcifications in a 34-year-old man presenting with no clinical symptoms. Imaging studies of the chest, including chest roentgenogram and computerized tomography (CT), revealed a left posterior mediastinal mass that abutted onto the left diaphragmatic crus with ...

Calcified Bronchogenic Cyst

Herein, we reported the case of a 32-year-old male patient presented with intermittent attacks of mild right chest pain and dyspnea for 2 years. On contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the chest, a non-enhancing subcarinal cystic lesion about 6×6.5 cm was detected in the posterior mediastinum, consistent with the features of bronchogenic cyst. The lesion showed small calcific focus cha...
