- Abstract
- Bronchogenic cysts are rare foregut abnormalities that arise from aberrant budding of the tracheobronchial tree early in embryological development. They account for 10% to 15% of all primary masses of the mediastinum (1), where they appear predominantly and may compress nearby structures. Intra-esophageal bronchogenic cysts are rare and have only been reported in 23 adult cases since 1981 (2). We report an intra-esophageal bronchogenic cyst that was removed by endoscopic mucosal dissection (ESD). This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
