Bronchogenic cysts are tracheobronchial system anomalies caused by abnormal budding of the tracheal diverticulum at the time of gestational development of the tracheobronchial

چکیده
Bronchogenic cysts that formed during the development of the tracheobronchial tree in the gestational period are mostly asymptomatic until adulthood. Cysts localized in the middle mediastinum, specifically in the subcarinal region, on the other hand, may cause serious symptoms by compressing the heart and major vessels due to their close proximity. In this report it is suggested that surgical resection of a giant bronchogenic cyst that compresses the heart and great vessels should be securely performed in the presence of a readily available cardiopulmonary bypass capability.

Intrapericardial bronchogenic duplication cyst.
Bronchogenic cysts arise from an abnormal budding of the ventral diverticulum of the foregut or the tracheobronchial tree, during embryogenesis. Intrapericardial cysts are rare, accounting for 27% of bronchogenic cysts. In this case report, we present a young woman with a symptomatic intrapericardial bronchogenic cyst compressing the superior vena cava. The cyst was resected via median sternoto...
متن کاملLeft atrial compression by a mediastinal bronchogenic cyst presenting with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
Mediastinal bronchogenic cysts develop from abnormal budding of the primitive tracheobronchial tree. They are usually located in the mediastinum at the level of the tracheal bifurcation. In adults they are frequently asymptomatic and are discovered incidentally on the chest radiograph. As they enlarge they may cause symptoms referable to tracheal, bronchial, or oesophageal compression.' Extrins...
متن کاملScapular bronchogenic cyst: a case report and literature review.
Bronchogenic cysts originate from abnormal budding of the tracheal diverticula during the embryological period. Inaccuracy in the process of growing of the ventral foregut will give rise to bronchogenic cyst. Scapular bronchogenic cyst is an extremely rare form of this anomaly. A three years old boy suffered for 2 years with left sided suprascapular cystic lesion which was gradually increasing ...
متن کاملSpontaneous regression of bronchogenic cyst accompanied by pneumonia
Bronchogenic cysts arise from abnormal budding of the ventral diverticulum of the foregut or tracheobronchial tree during embryogenesis, are the most common cystic masses in the mediastinum, and are generally asymptomatic. A spontaneous regression in a mediastinal bronchogenic cyst (MBC) with pneumonia is rare. A 30-year-old male had a tumor shadow in the middle mediastinum. When he visited our...
متن کاملMycobacterial infection of a congenital bronchogenic cyst.
Bronchogenic cysts result from an abnormal budding or branching of the tracheobronchial tree. Approximately 30% of the cysts are located in the mediastinum and the remaining 70% in the lung. The cyst may be joined to the tracheobronchial tree by a fistula or by a fibrous band. Pulmonary bronchogenic cysts occur most frequently in the lower lobes, primarily on the right side. They are thin-walle...
