Abstract
|
|
|
|
Bronchogenic cyst is rare lesion that arises from maldevelopment of the primitive foregut, and is usually found in the lung and mediastinum. Cutaneous or subcutaneous bronchogenic cyst is rare and occur unusually in the shoulder region. We report here a case of 20-month-old boy with a bronchogenic cyst on his left shoulder region. He underwent incisional biopsy and curettage for a tender cystic mass at a department of dermatology, diagnosed as a epidermal inculsion cyst. But, additional cystic mass was palpated during wound care. MRI showed a well-defined subcutaneous cystic mass. The excised cyst was lined with pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium with occasional goblet cells and diagnosed as a bronchogenic cyst.
