AI Article Synopsis
- Bronchial cyst (BC) is typically found in the posterior mediastinum but can occasionally appear in the retroperitoneum, such as the adrenal area.
- A case study details a 65-year-old male who had a left adrenal lesion, initially thought to be an adrenal adenoma, and underwent laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy.
- Post-surgery, he showed no signs of recurrence during a 9-month follow-up, and the article discusses the case and related literature on adrenal BC diagnosis and treatments.
Article Abstract
Bronchial cyst (BC), also known as anterior intestinal cyst, is often located in the posterior mediastinum and rarely in the retroperitoneum, especially in the adrenal area. The patient was a 65-year-old male with a left adrenal lesion (adrenal adenoma was considered) indicated by imaging examination at initial diagnosis. After completing the preoperative preparation, the patient underwent laparoscopic partial adrenalectomy under general anesthesia. The postoperative examination revealed no recurrence in the postoperative follow-up for 9 months. This article introduces the diagnosis and treatments of a case of adrenal BC and reviews the literature.

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.

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.

Background: Highly effective CFTR modulators improve CFTR function and lead to dramatic improvements in health outcomes in many people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). The relationship between measures of CFTR function, such as sweat chloride concentration, and clinical outcomes in pwCF treated with CFTR modulators is poorly defined. We conducted analyses to better understand the relationships between sweat chloride and CFTR function in vitro, and between sweat chloride and clinical outcomes following CFTR modulator treatment.

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.
