Abstract

Intrathoracic mesothelial cysts are congenital developmental cysts usually located in the anterior cardiophrenic angle region (so called, pericardial cysts). We report two rare cases of an intrathoracic paraspinal mesothelial cyst which was purely cystic and had no perceptible cyst wall on CT or MRI with histopathologic findings.

흉강 내 중피낭종은 일반적으로 심장횡격막각의 전방부에 발생하여 심막낭종이라고 불리기도 하는 선천성 발생학적 낭종이다. 저자들은 컴퓨터단층촬영 영상 및 자기공명영상에서 척추주변부의 낭종으로 보인 2개의 중피낭종에 대해 조직병리 소견과 함께 보고한다.
