Abstract

Introduction: Bronchogenic cysts are benign and rare congenital lesions that develop from the inferior anterior intestinal tract that forms the respiratory system. These lesions occur in the fifth week or before the eighteenth day in the embryo. They mostly emerge near the main chest or bronchus, especially clinging to the posterior carina and posterior or medial mediastinum. Methods: In this review article, the databases Medline, Cochrane, Science Direct, and Google Scholar were thoroughly searched to identify the studies Bronchogenic cyst. In this review, the papers published until early January 2017 that were conducted to study the Bronchogenic cyst were selected. Presenting the patient: The patient is a 25-year-old woman who complained of chest pain. His skin suddenly began to have a sharp, daggered appearance, and he experienced heightened chest movement during breathing. Along with pain, he had a feeling of shortness of breath. Considering that a cyst containing connective tissue was reported with respiratory epithelial cells and serum-mucosal glands in the pathology of the lesion, the final diagnosis turned out to be secondary pneumothorax and rupture of Bronchogenic cyst. Conclusion: Although lung parenchyma is not a common place in the development of Bronchogenic cyst, it is particularly important due to severe complications that can be associated with it. Since it is rarely possible to accurately diagnose preoperative conditions, it is necessary to perform resection of the lesion med in all suspected cases of bronchogenic cysts. © 2017, Pharmainfo Publications.
