CTICasesBronchogenic Cyst vs. Sequestration of the Diaphragm
Imaging findings
A cystic lesion arising from the left hemidiaphragm muscle. Pathological analysis revealed both bronchial and alveolar elements.
Key takeaways
While bronchogenic cysts can occur in the diaphragm, the presence of alveolar elements suggests an overlap with, or misdiagnosis as, pulmonary sequestration. Surgeons generally favor resection of these lesions due to risks of infection or rare malignant transformation.
