Purpose: Bronchogenic cysts are rare benign congenital anomalies, originating from the embryonic foregut ventral segment. Adrenal bronchogenic cyst is a rare form of this anomaly. One extremely rare case of bilateral adrenal multilocular bronchogenic cyst in our hospital was reported and the relevant literatures were reviewed. Significant findings: A 51-year-old man suffered from an intermittent vague headache, fatigue and hypertension history for 2 years, which were gradually worsened in a week. Imaging tests showed bilateral suprarenal mass and left renal cysts. After underwent two retroperitoneal laparoscopic adrenal gland tumor separately, they were all proved to be both the multilocular bronchogenic cyst located in bilateral adrenal gland by histopathological examination.
Conclusions: This report confirms the bronchogenic cyst that can be involved bilateral joint in the adrenal gland. And we demonstrated retroperitoneoscopic surgical management is effective in the treatment of the disease.

Background: Bronchial cysts (BCs) can be difficult to diagnose because of non-specific site of occurrence and heterogeneous density of cyst content in some patients. We present herein a BC case with such nonspecific findings.
Case: A 23-year-old man referred to our hospital because of an abnormal chest image during a mass-screening.

Intradural extramedullary bronchogenic cysts (IEBCs) are exceedingly rare congenital entities, composed of respiratory epithelial cells derived from the anomalous development of the embryonic foregut. Due to their exceptionally low morbidity, only limited cases are available. Consequently, the clinical features and optimal therapeutic approach remain poorly understood.

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.
