“…Rarely, the cysts have occurred in other locations, including cutaneous [7] and subcutaneous tissues [8], neck [9], pericardium [10], diaphragm [11], abdomen [12], and the intramedullar part of the spine [13]. They have also been reported to extend from the mediastinum through the diaphragm into the abdomen as dumbbell cysts [14].…”

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to evaluate the preoperative and operative presentations of one paediatric and 30 adult patients with bronchogenic cyst of the mediastinum (n=11) and lung (n=20).At initial presentation, six patients were asymptomatic and 25 were symptomatic. The mean age of asymptomatic and symptomatic patients was 25 and 33 yrs, respectively. Six patients presented with complications, including superior vena cava syndrome, tracheal compression, pneumothorax, pleurisy and pneumonia. Two patients who were asymptomatic when initially observed eventually needed surgery because of the development of symptoms or enlargement of the cyst size. In one patient, the cyst was not seen on the chest radiograph but appeared as a lobulated nodule of 2 cm diameter in a chest computerized tomography (CT) scan. Operative difficulties were encountered in 13 patients, all of whom were symptomatic preoperatively.In conclusion, life-threatening complications occurred in these patients. Despite various diagnostic studies, definitive tissue diagnosis was established only by means of surgical excision. The frequency of operative difficulties in symptomatic cysts was higher than those of asymptomatic cysts. Surgery may be considered as the treatment of choice even when the cyst is asymptomatic, since complications are not uncommon.

“…However, very few cysts show all of these components. 10 Incomplete defective form of bronchogenic cysts-those without cartilage and glandular tissue-are often hard to differentiate from esophageal cysts, gastroduodenal cysts, and ectopic bronchial pulmonary sequestration. Cartilage and glandular tissue were also not found in this case.…”

Abdominal computed tomography of a 71-year-old man revealed a 3-cm mass in gastric cardia. Although the mass was widely attached to the gastric wall, no clear contrast enhancement was observed. Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging revealed the mass to have homogenous high intensity on T2W1 images and isointensity on T1W1 images. On diffusion-weighted imaging, no high intensity was observed. However, the mass had a smooth surface and was widely attached to the gastric wall, consistent with computed tomography findings. A gastric submucosal tumor was suspected. Laparoscopic tumor resection was performed. Histopathologic diagnosis of the mass was a bronchogenic cyst derived from the respiratory primordium originating in the foregut of the primitive intestine. Such cysts are mostly found in the mediastinum or thoracic cavity; their occurrence on the gastric wall is extremely rare. Despite this, we think that bronchogenic cysts should be considered in the differential diagnosis of abdominal unilocular cystic diseases.

“…These were summarized in table III. They can occur in many atypical locations, including neck 7 , cutaneous 13 and subcutaneous tissues 14 , pericardium 15 , diaphragm 16 , abdomen 17 , and the intramedullar part of the Spine 18 . They have also been reported to extend from the mediastinum through the diaphragm into the abdomen as dumbbell cysts 19 .…”

Bronchogenic cysts are congenital anomalies caused by abnormal bronchial development from the primitive ventral foregut, which arises from cells isolated from the main pulmonary branching when lung bud separates from the primitive gut. We reviewed all pediatric patients with bronchogenic cyst who underwent surgery in our thoracic surgical unit-III during 2007-2009. They comprised 1 male and 5 female patients, with an age range of 2 to 17 years (mean age 5.66 years). Symptoms were present in 5 patients (83%), cough was the most common symptom. Other symptoms included purulent sputum, chest pain, fever, dyspnea, anorexia and/or weight loss, and haemoptysis. All patients underwent chest x-ray posteroanterior and lateral view and CT scan of chest for diagnostic purpose. Two of the cysts were mediastinal and rests were intraparenchymal. Surgery performed were resection (2), lobectomy (4). There was no operative deaths & no in-hospital mortality.
