CTICasesCalcified Bronchogenic Cyst
Imaging findings
CT chest shows a well-defined, round right paratracheal mass demonstrating dense, thick peripheral wall calcification and homogeneous internal fluid attenuation.
Key takeaways
Bronchogenic cysts are congenital foregut duplication anomalies. Over time, their walls can calcify and their internal contents can become highly proteinaceous or contain calcium milk, mimicking solid neoplasms. Wall calcification is a helpful sign to confirm a benign, long-standing process.
