Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment of patients with cervical bronchogenic cyst.Methods:This study enrolled 14 cases of cervical bronchogenic cysts confirmed by surgery and pathology in our hospital from Sep 2015 to Sep 2020 to discuss clinical, imaging features and diagnosist.Results:Cysts lay in the left neck in 8 cases and in the right side in 6 cases, with the largest diameter of 5.8 cm and the smallest of 0.8 cm (3.4±1.7) cm. Cysts were closely related to the thyroid in 10 cases, adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve in 2 cases. The postoperative pathology established the diagnosis of bronchogenic cyst, and no patients suffered from recurrence during the follow-up period.Conclusions:Cervical bronchogenic cyst is a rare congenital malformation of extrathoracic bronchogenic cyst. Final diagnosis is dependent upon pathology. Complete surgical resection is the key to prevent recurrence.
