Objective To discuss the diagnosis and early intervention treatment of fetal congenital broncho-genic cysts based on the cases reviewed. Methods The clinical features of 7 infants presenting bronchogenic cysts diagnosed antenatally from January 2013 to May 2014 in Guangdong Women and Children's Hospital and Health In-stitute were reviewed retrospectively. Pathology,the prenatal diagnosis and treatment of bronchogenic cysts experience were summarized combined with CT after birth and surgery. Results Based on the prenatal diagnosis of fetal and postnatal CT and surgical pathology,a total of 7 cases with congenital bronchial cysts were diagnosed. Of which 4 ca-ses were suggestive of congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation by prenatal diagnosis,and the other 3 cases had fetal bronchial cysts by prenatal diagnosis,antenatal diagnosis was accurate in 42. 9%(3 / 7 cases). CT examinations were taken in 7 cases after birth,and the cyst excision was performed on them with surgery thoracic approach;the average age at surgery was(5. 3 ± 1. 7)months. Four cases had simple bronchial cystss,2 cases with congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation,1 case with congenital pulmonary sequestration. The accuracy of CT diagnosis was 85. 7%(6 / 7 cases). All surgical treatment was effective. Conclusions Fetal bronchial cysts is always associated with the other presence of lung congenital malformations. Prenatal diagnosis of congenital bronchial cysts is difficult. Prenatal diagnosis is difficult to exclude congenital cystsic adenomatoid malformation. To avoid symptoms like oppres-sion,infection,prenatal diagnosis combined with CT examination after birth and early treatment are necessary and reliable clinically.
