  ABSTRACT: The bronchogenic cyst, a congenital pulmonary malformation of often late revelation is rare. Its clinical manifestation, depending on the size of the cyst and its location, is dominated by respiratory symptoms. We report a case of a bronchogenic cyst in a 23-month-old infant treated with salbutamol combined with corticosteroid therapy for a third episode of breathing difficulty and wheezing. A chest X-ray and CT scan guided the diagnosis. Histological confirmation was made on an operative specimen after removal of the cyst. The immediate and mid-term outcome was good.
