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.
