Role of endobronchial ultrasound scan in the diagnosis and management of intrapulmonary bronchogenic cyst misdiagnosed by low-dose CT scan of the chest as lung mass
2017
Overview
Bronchogenic cyst is a rare congenital lesion derived from primitive foregut.1–3 In contrast to our case, most bronchogenic cysts are mediastinal rather than intrapulmonary.1 CT scan of the chest usually shows fluid in the cyst with zero density (Hounsfield units), but in some cases density could be higher making the diagnosis more challenging.23 In our case, fluid density was 20, which favoured other differential diagnosis. Surgical resection of the cyst is the recommended treatment because of the risk of recurrence.3 The utility of endobronchial ultrasound scan helps with diagnosis of bronchogenic cyst, and obtaining fluid for analysis and possible treatment. Role of endobronchial ultrasound in the diagnosis and management of bronchogenic cysts: two case descriptions and literature review.
