Paraesophageal bronchogenic cyst was one of common mediastinal congenital cystic lesions of foregut origin. Because of an intimate embryologic relationship with the esophagus, they were usually found intramural (intramural esophageal bronchogenic cysts) with the local esophageal mucosa being intact and the paraesophageal bronchogenic cysts were rarely communicated with esophageal lumen. We report a case of para-esophageal bronchogenic cyst communicating to the esophageal lumen thorough a pedicle of canal, which looked liked a diverticulum on X-ray. During the operation, a communication of paraesophageal bronchogenic cyst with esophageal was found and the pathology diagnosis were made then. The symptoms of chest pain and dysphagia were relieved immediately after operation. The follow-up was well 2 years after the surgery.

Localized cystic lung lesions in pediatric patients encompass a spectrum of benign and rare malignant conditions that are quite distinct from cystic lung disease arising in adulthood. The majority have historically fallen under the diagnostic category of "congenital pulmonary airway malformation," a term that has been used to denote a diverse group of diseases ranging in etiology from ectopia to bronchial atresia to mosaic oncogenic mutation or neoplasia. This article reviews the clinical characteristics, gross and histologic features, and pathogenetic underpinnings of congenital pulmonary airway malformation as well as lesions that enter its histologic differential diagnosis.

Introduction: Bronchogenic cysts (BCs) are congenital lesions from abnormal foregut development, usually located in the mediastinum or lungs. While often asymptomatic and benign, they can cause complications. Surgical excision is the definitive treatment.

Posterior mediastinal Mullerian cyst is rare. Due to its special location, it is easy to be misdiagnosed clinically, imaging and pathologically. Imaging is often misdiagnosed as a bronchial cyst or neurogenic tumor.

A 6-month-old child with stridor from 3 months of age presented with interim worsening following a respiratory infection. Airway evaluation revealed a smooth, polypoidal mass herniating in and out of the airway with each respiratory cycle, from the anterior surface of the upper trachea. Computerized tomography showed a non-enhancing cystic mass in anterior neck protruding into the upper trachea through an anterior tracheal defect.

A cervical bronchogenic cyst is a rare embryological anomaly of the primitive foregut, with an exceptionally uncommon occurrence in a suprahyoid location attached to the parotid tail. We report a case of an asymptomatic neck mass initially diagnosed as either a branchial cleft cyst or lymphangioma based on clinic-radiological investigation, which was subsequently confirmed as an ectopic bronchogenic cyst through histopathological examination.
