“…Cases of pulmonary sequestration communicating with the stomach have been previously described [ 3 – 6 ]. Bronchogenic cysts arising from or communicating with the stomach have been reported even more frequently [ 7 ]. Furthermore, "foregut duplication cysts" or "foregut cysts" communicating with the stomach, in which the cyst wall is lined with both gastric mucosa and pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium, have also been reported [ 8 – 11 ].…”

Background Laryngotracheoesophageal cleft (LTEC) is a rare disease in which the larynx and trachea communicate posteriorly to the esophagus. It is often associated with other congenital malformations, particularly gastrointestinal anomalies. Herein, we report a case of LTEC associated with a gastric polypoid lesion in bronchial tissue. Case presentation A gastric mass was detected in a male fetus since week 21 of gestation using fetal ultrasonography. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy performed after birth revealed a pedunculated polypoid lesion of the gastric fornix. The patient experienced frequent vomiting and aspiration pneumonia, which persisted after nasoduodenal tube feeding. Communication between the airway and esophagus was suspected. Laryngoscopy performed 30 days later revealed an LTEC (type III). Partial gastrectomy was performed when the patient was 93 days of age. Histopathological examination revealed tumor consisting of cartilage tissue covered with a layer of respiratory epithelium. Conclusion The gastric tumor associated with LTEC exhibited structures mimicking bronchial tissue. LTEC occurs because of foregut maldevelopment, and the tumorous respiratory tissue in the stomach may have been formed from the same abnormal foregut development event as LTEC.

“…Knowledge on pathological features is essential for the complete and less invasive resection of cysts because radiological examinations could not detect the positional associations between the cysts and surrounding organs. In previous cases of gastric bronchogenic cysts, the lesion was continuous with the stomach wall or was surrounded with the smooth muscle, which is continuous with the gastric muscular layer[ 23 ]. In Patients 1 and 2, the cysts also shared their muscular layer with that of the gastric wall histopathologically.…”

BACKGROUND Bronchogenic cysts are congenital lesions requiring radical resection because of malignant potential. However, a method for the optimal resection of these cysts has not been completely elucidated. CASE SUMMARY Herein, we presented three patients with bronchogenic cysts that were located adjacent to the gastric wall and resected laparoscopically. The cysts were detected incidentally with no symptoms and the preoperative diagnosis was challenging to obtain via radiological examinations. Based on laparoscopic findings, the cyst was attached firmly to the gastric wall and the boundary between the gastric and cyst walls was difficult to identify. Consequently, resection of cysts alone caused cystic wall injury in Patient 1. Meanwhile, the cyst was resected completely along with a part of the gastric wall in Patient 2. Histopathological examination revealed the final diagnosis of bronchogenic cyst and revealed that the cyst wall shared the muscular layer with the gastric wall in Patients 1 and 2. In Patient 3, the cyst was located adjacent to the gastric wall but histopathologically originated from diaphragm rather than stomach. All the patients were free from recurrence. CONCLUSION The findings of this study state that a safe and complete resection of bronchogenic cysts required the adherent gastric muscular layer or full-thickness dissection, if bronchogenic cysts are suspected via pre- and/or intraoperative findings.

“…The cause of this phenomenon may have a lot to do with the location of the cyst and the limited size of the cyst (8-9 mm thick). For example, it has been reported that bronchial cysts located in the stomach can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting in patients[ 5 , 12 ]. The clinical symptoms of benign masses in the skin layer are mostly the continuous growth of the mass, which affects the skin morphology.…”

BACKGROUND Skin bronchogenic cysts are extremely rare congenital bronchocystic changes caused by the abnormal development of the trachea, bronchial trees or lung buds during the embryonic period. The first case of skin bronchogenic cysts was reported in 1945. Since then, this disease has attracted increasing attention, but due to the low incidence, its pathogenesis is still not clear. CASE SUMMARY Here, we report another case of skin bronchogenic cysts with infection in a 64-year-old female patient. The patient had no symptoms for more than 60 years until her chest wall was recently found to be swollen, and she felt pain and discomfort. At the same time, secretions were found on the surface of the swelling. Color Doppler ultrasound examination showed abnormal echoes in the soft tissue under the frontal chest wall, suggesting the presence of cysts. Cytological puncture resulted in about 2 mL of pus and showed the presence of more acute inflammatory cells. The final clinical diagnosis was skin cyst with infection, and surgery was carried out. The pathological results obtained after surgery showed that the cystic wall was covered with column-like cilia epithelial cells, and the interstitial structure was partially inundated with inflammatory cells. After a variety of examinations and clinical diagnoses, we finally confirmed that the patient was suffering from bronchogenic cyst. CONCLUSION This article not only describes the case of an elderly patient with rare skin bronchogenic cysts with infection but also provides a detailed and correct diagnosis and a successful treatment process, which is of great value for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
