Concurrent bronchopulmonary foregut malformations: a rare case of right-sided extralobar pulmonary sequestration and bronchogenic cyst

Extralobar pulmonary sequestration and mediastinal bronchogenic cyst.

A child with coexisting mediastinal bronchogenic cyst and extralobar pulmonary sequestration is presented. Two distinct lesions were suggested by barium esophagram and confirmed by a chest computed tomography scan. The diagnostic and embryologic relationship of the two lesions is discussed.

Extralobar pulmonary sequestration with an associated cyst of mixed bronchogenic and esophageal type--a case report.

We report an unusual case of extralobar pulmonary sequestration (ELS) with an associated cyst of mixed bronchogenic and esophageal type. A 58-year-old woman was incidentally found to have a 6 x 6 x 5 cm sized mass in the right superior mediastinum. The mass consisted of sequestrated pulmonary tissue and an unilocular cyst with a direct communication. The cyst could not be easily classified beca...

"Communicating" bronchopulmonary foregut malformations.

The clinical, radiologic, and pathologic features of four children with uncommon variations of congenital bronchopulmonary foregut malformations are presented. In each case, the malformation included a persistent communication between lung tissue and the gastrointestinal tract. One case, in which an esophageal bronchus was associated with esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula, is con...

A Case of Intrapericardial Extralobar Pulmonary Sequestration

[Extralobar pulmonary sequestration. A case report].

We described the case of a 36-year-old Turkish female with an extralobar pulmonary sequestration who suffered from chest and back pain for five years without any evidence of pulmonary infection. A chest X-ray showed an area of opacity behind the cardiac silhouette in the lower area of the left hemithorax. A CT scan of the thorax with intravenous contrast showed a 9 x 7 cm in size ovoid mass wit...
