Abstract

Bronchogenic cysts are anomalous cystic lesions of foregut and usually located in the lung or mediastinum. Generally intramuscular cysts of the esophagus are considered as enterogenous foregut malformations. We report a young adult with an intramural bronchogenic cyst causing dysphagia and heartburn. It was located in the muscular layer of the esophagus and was removed without any damage to the mucosa. Histopathologic findings revealed that it was a bronchogenic cyst.

기관지성 낭종은 전장에서 기인한 기형 낭종의 일종으로 폐나 종격동에 존재한다. 일반적으로 식도 근육층에 존재하는 낭성 병변은 전장의 장성 기형이다. 저자들은 연하곤란과 속쓰림으로 내원한 젊은 남자에서 식도 점막하 종양을 절제하였다. 종양은 식도 근육 안에 함몰되어 있었으며 점막 손상 없이 제거하였다. 조직학적 검사상 이 병변은 기관지성 낭종으로 밝혀졌다.
