==[[Bronchogenic cyst overview|Overview]]==
Bronchogenic cyst is a [[benign]] [[congenital malformation]] of the [[respiratory tract|tracheobronchial tree]] derived from the ventral aspect of the [[foregut]]. It most frequently occurs in the middle mediastinum, in the early stages of [[gestation]] or in the lungs, at the later stages of gestation. Atypical locations may be explained by its embryologic origin.
Patients with bronchogenic cyst may be asymptomatic or present with [[respiratory distress]], increasing [[stridor]],  feeding difficulties, [[chest pain]], [[cough]], progressive [[dysphagia]], [[odynophagia]], purulent sputum, [[dyspnea]], [[anorexia]] and/or[[ weight loss]].
Radiologic findings are useful to differentiate bronchogenic cysts from other cysts but may they not always confirm the diagnosis. Diagnosis is confirmed by surgical excision, which is curative, and histological findings of ciliated [[columnar epithelial]] lining of the cyst.

==Histopathology==
Bronchogenic cysts are usually lined by ciliated [[columnar epithelium]] of respiratory type, leading to distention as a result of  secretions produced within the cavity. Cyst wall may be composed of [[cartilage]], [[smooth muscle]], [[fibrous tissue]], chronic inflammatory infiltrates, [[necrotic tissue]], focal areas of [[squamous metaplasia]], vascular proliferation, [[Reid index|bronchial gland]], and [[mucous glands]].<ref name="pmid30725658">{{cite journal| author=| title=StatPearls | journal= | year= 2020 | volume=  | issue=  | pages=  | pmid=30725658 | doi= | pmc= | url= }} </ref> <ref name="pmid17859095">{{cite journal| author=Maier HC| title=Bronchiogenic Cysts of the Mediastinum. | journal=Ann Surg | year= 1948 | volume= 127 | issue= 3 | pages= 476-502 | pmid=17859095 | doi=10.1097/00000658-194803000-00010 | pmc=1513836 | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=17859095  }} </ref> <ref name="pmid15081229">{{cite journal| author=Mehta RP, Faquin WC, Cunningham MJ| title=Cervical bronchogenic cysts: a consideration in the differential diagnosis of pediatric cervical cystic masses. | journal=Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol | year= 2004 | volume= 68 | issue= 5 | pages= 563-8 | pmid=15081229 | doi=10.1016/j.ijporl.2003.12.015 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=15081229  }} </ref> <ref name="pmid19015445">{{cite journal| author=Teissier N, Elmaleh-Bergès M, Ferkdadji L, François M, Van den Abbeele T| title=Cervical bronchogenic cysts: usual and unusual clinical presentations. | journal=Arch Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg | year= 2008 | volume= 134 | issue= 11 | pages= 1165-9 | pmid=19015445 | doi=10.1001/archotol.134.11.1165 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=19015445  }} </ref><ref name="pmid8902460">{{cite journal| author=Aktoğu S, Yuncu G, Halilçolar H, Ermete S, Buduneli T| title=Bronchogenic cysts: clinicopathological presentation and treatment. | journal=Eur Respir J | year= 1996 | volume= 9 | issue= 10 | pages= 2017-21 | pmid=8902460 | doi=10.1183/09031936.96.09102017 | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=8902460  }} </ref>
