🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Bronchogenic cysts are developmental anomalies of tracheobronchial tree caused by abnormal budding of tracheal diverticula in embryonic life.

Abstract

Bronchogenic cysts are developmental anomalies of tracheobronchial tree caused by abnormal budding of tracheal diverticula in embryonic life. Since it may be asymptomatic until adult life, the imaging findings of this anomaly with unknown incidence may be similar to bronchial atresia. The imaging findings of a case with bronchogenic cyst, in which the diagnosis is confirmed after surgery, are presented in this manuscript with the emphasis on differential diagnosis with bronchial atresia.

Özet

Bronkojenik kistler, trakea divertikülünün anormal tomurcuklanmasıyla meydana gelen, trakeobronşiyal sistemin gelişimsel anomalileridir. Erişkin döneme kadar asemptomatik olabileceği için tam sıklığı bilinmeyen bu anomalide, görüntüleme bulguları bronşial atrezi ile benzer özellikler gösterebilir. Bu çalışmada, cerrahi sonrası bronkojenik kist tanısı alan hastada, görüntüleme bulguları ile bronkojenik kist ve bronş atrezisinin ayrımının sunulması amaçlanmıştır.
