Wheezing and cough are common case scenarios that pediatricians encountered in their office practices. Although a bronchogenic cyst is an uncommon condition, it is essential to be considered in the differential diagnosis of a chronic cough and wheezing among young children who fail to respond to

Bronchogenic cysts are rare congenital anomalies result of abnormal development of the tracheobronchial tree. They develop in the lung parenchyma or in the mediastinum. For a period of 17 years (1975-1991) a total of 46 children with bronchogenic cysts have been treated; in 6 the cysts were

A 51-year-old man presented with cough and pain in his upper chest for 1 week. Chest CT showed an ill-defined right paratracheal mass with slight enhancement in the upper mediastinum. A FDG PET/CT was performed showing focal increased FDG uptake with SUVmax of 4.7 in the mass. The mass was excised

BACKGROUND To present the results of the patients with mediastinal bronchogenic cysts that underwent robotic surgery using Da Vinci Robotic System in our institution. METHODS Five patients with mediastinal bronchogenic cyst undergoing robotic resection between October 2011 and September 2015 were

BACKGROUND Cystic lesions related to the upper airway are an unusual cause of infantile stridor. Such a lesion may exert a mass effect, with subsequent airway compromise. METHODS A six-month-old boy was transferred to our unit with a right-sided, level IV neck lump and a three-month history of

A 68-year-old woman was admitted with symptoms of dry cough and stridor. Computed tomography of the chest revealed a cystic, polypoid lesion protruding inside the trachea, extending to the subcarina. The patient underwent a resection of the cyst, which was found to penetrate the wall of the trachea.

Bronchogenic cysts are congenital anomalies of the respiratory tract, which can affect children or adults. In adults, these cysts may be asymptomatic or present with symptoms, most often pain or cough. Intrapericardial cysts are rare and represent 27% of bronchogenic cysts. We present the case of a

A 27-year-old man was admitted with chest pain and cough in January 1999. Chest radiograph on admission showed a widened tracheal bifurcation. Computer tomography on admission showed a low density mass located at the tracheal bifurcation. Magnetic resonance imaging of the chest showed a well defined

Intrapulmonary bronchogenic cysts (IBC) represent 20% of abnormal budding of the respiratory tract. Lobectomy is the recommended treatment for IBC in symptomatic adults. We presented a case of a patient with an IBC involving the right upper and middle lobes (RUL-RML). A 27-year-old woman presented

Background: Bronchogenic cysts are congenital malformations from abnormal budding of embryonic foregut and tracheobronchial tree. We present a case of bronchogenic cyst with severe back pain, epigastric distress and refractory nausea and vomiting. Case Presentation: A 44-year-old Hispanic female

Video-thoracoscopy was used to diagnose and successfully treat a bronchogenic cyst in a patient who presented with a chronic cough and a right hilar mass.

A 34-year-old man presented with sudden back pain and dyspnea. Chest X-ray showed left-sided massive pleural effusion. Chest computed tomography revealed an intrathoracic mass sized 9 cm. Hemorrhagic effusion was achieved with thoracic drainage on admission. Diagnostic video-assisted surgery was

Antecedentes: Los quistes broncogénicos esofágicos son sacos cerrados originados de brotes anormales del tubo -traqueobronquial primitivo. Estas lesiones suelen ser asintomáticas, por lo que pueden hallarse incidentalmente o pueden causar

A 23 year old female with a past history of a lung abscess diagnosed at the age of 13 years presented with recurrent episodes of productive cough. Chest radiograph and a high resolution CT scan of the thorax led to the diagnosis of a left lower lobe lung abscess. She underwent a successful
