ABSTRACT

Congenital cysts of the mediastinum are infrequent; their prevalence in the adult population is higher than in children. An esophageal duplication cyst is the second more frequent duplication of the gastrointestinal tract after ileal duplications. Cysts of the foregut result from an abnormal division of the primitive intestine. Histologycally, a cyst is a muscular sac lined with stratified epithelium. It is usually asymptomatic and in half of the patients it is an incidental finding. In the aetiology chest pain, a cyst of the digestive tract is a rare occurrence. On the other hand fever and acute pain can be caused by maceration or rupture of the cyst. Cysts have been associated with spinal abnormalities such as spina bifida, hemivertebrae and vertebral fusion defects.
