Abstract

Bronchogenic cysts are uncommon congenital lesions which are derived from primitive foregut. Most of the bronchogenic cysts may occur at the tracheal bifurcation, both main bronchi, the lung parenchyme and the mediastinum. We experienced a case of bronchogenic cyst with a esophageal stalk. The diagnosis was made by simple chest x-ray and confirmed by bronchoscopy and chest CT. On the chest CT findings, 6.8X4.8 cm-sized oval shaped mass was located on the right posteroinferior side of the carina, elevating the right main bronchus and the thin wall of the mass was enhanced with contrast materials. On the operative findings, the esophagus and the cyst were connected with a stalk and the cyst was filled with mucinous materials. And on the histological findings, the mass was lined with pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. Thus we report this case of bronchogenic cyst with review of literatures.
