Bronchogenic cysts are among developmental disorders of the primitive foregut which are typically found above the diaphragm. Bronchial cysts discovered in the abdominal cavity or retroperitoneum are extremely rare. We present a rare case of a retroperitoneal bronchogenic cyst which was incidentally detected after a wrestling injury in a 23-year-old man who had a negative medical history. Alth...

Bronchogenic cyst is considered as an uncommon congenital anomaly. It can be mostly found in mediastinum or lung. Intracardiac bronchogenic cyst is very rare. We found 2 cases in more than 20000 cardiac surgical cases in our department. The 2 cases bronchogenic cyst arose from interatrial septum (IAS), the preoperative diagnosis were myxoma, but the histological diagnosis were bronchogenic cyst...

we report a rare case of congenital foregut cysts (esophageal bronchogenic cyst) in a young woman with history of long term dysphagia. she presented with dysphagia and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed bulge submucosal lesion in the distal of the esophagus. endoscopic ultrasound showed a 3×3 cm cystic lesion suggestive for esophageal duplication or bronchogenic cyst. computed tomography o...

Subcutaneous bronchogenic cysts have been described rarely, particularly among adolescents. Only a few reports have described the ultrasonographic features of bronchogenic cysts, characterizing them as nonspecific cystic masses with or without internal echogenic foci or debris. Therefore, it is hard to differentiate subcutaneous bronchogenic cysts from other subcutaneous cystic tumors ultrasono...

Intrapulmonary bronchogenic cyst is a rare congenital lesion originating from abnormal budding of the embryonic foregut. It is less common than mediastinal bronchogenic cyst. We describe a case of intrapulmonary bronchogenic cyst and discuss the treatment of this condition. (JUMMEC 2008; 11 (2): 86-88)

difficult to treat asthma is an asthma syndrome that brings in our mind other differentials. mediastinal masses are not common findings, but are important variables. bronchogenic cyst is a congenital anomaly of the foregut that is typically found in the mediastinum and diagnosed accidentally. we present a 4-year-old girl with allergic asthma that began at 8-months of age and finally a bronchoge...

A case of a 50-year-old male who developed left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy due to a bronchogenic cyst is presented. The bronchogenic cyst recurred following incomplete excision and multiple attempts at percutaneous aspiration. Recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy is an unusual complication of bronchogenic cysts. This case highlights the need for complete excision of these cysts and the lack of ...

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...

PURPOSE Bronchogenic cysts are rare benign congenital anomalies, originating from the embryonic foregut ventral segment. Adrenal bronchogenic cyst is a rare form of this anomaly. One extremely rare case of bilateral adrenal multilocular bronchogenic cyst in our hospital was reported and the relevant literatures were reviewed. Significant findings: A 51-year-old man suffered from an intermittent...
