Abstract:
Cutaneous bronchogenic cyst is an anomalous structure that arises from the tracheobronchial tree during embryonic development and is usually located in the area of the manubrium sternum or suprasternal notch. Histopathologically, bronchogenic cyst is lined by ciliated pseudostratified columnar epithelia with goblet cells. We report a case of cutaneous bronchogenic cyst in a 25-year-old male patient presented as a nodular lesion on the neck.
