Completely Air Filled Bronchogenic Cyst: A Rare Case
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Bronchogenic cysts are formed due to abnormal budding of bronchial tree. They are lined by respiratory epithelium. They are not air filled as they do not commonly communicate with the bronchial tree. They are filled with fluid containing proteins, blood products and calcium oxalate. One third are located in the lung parenchyma and two third are located in the mediastinum. 40 to 50% of all congenital cysts in the thorax are bronchogenic cysts. On CT scans they appear as round mass with attenuation similar to soft tissue or water.
