A bronchogenic cyst (BC) is a rarely seen benign congenital malformation of the bronchial tree. These cysts are lined with secretory respiratory epithelium, and are similar to a normal bronchial tree, including cartilage, elastic tissues, mucous glands and smooth muscle. They are usually asymptomatic, but a cough, fever, and hemoptysis may be seen. On plain radiographies, cysts are homogenous lesions, but if there is additional infection, an air-fluid level can be seen. This is a description of a rarely seen symptomatic intrapulmonary bronchogenic cyst and a review of the published literature.

Keywords: Bronchogenic cyst, intrapulmonary, Congenital malformation
