ABSTRACT
Bronchogenic cysts are malformations of the ventral portion of the primitive gut that cause an alteration in the development of the tracheobronchial tree. We report two cases of bronchogenic cysts with respiratory symptoms. A 32 year old woman had a mediastinal cyst at the right paratracheal level and the other was an eight month old boy with an intraparenchymal cyst in the right lower lobe. Chest X-rays and CAT scans are mandatory to determine the presence, exact location, size and relationships of the cysts to the larger airways. Both patients were resected without complications and have been asymptomatic. The histopathological study confirmed the diagnosis.
