ABSTRACT
Backgronund: Bronchogenic cysts result from abnormal budding of the primitive tracheobronchial tube and are rare congenital
cystic lesions. The location of the cyst depends on the embryological stage of abnormal budding. Although periesophageal
bronchogenic cysts have been frequently reported, a completely intramural cyst is very rare.
Clinical case: A 42-year-old
female patient, a three-month course with retrosternal pain associated with food intake, accompanied by intermittent dysphagia
to solids. Esophagogram, high resolution thoracic tomography and endoscopic ultrasound are performed, concluding a probable
esophageal bronchogenic cyst. Resection is performed by video-assisted thoracic surgery, without complications. Patient
presents with adequate evolution and complete remission of the symptomatology.
Conclusion: Bronchogenic cysts of the
esophageal wall are extremely uncommon lesions. Its surgical treatment is indicated to be symptomatic; video-assisted thoracoscopic
surgery resection is of choice, with excellent long-term results and minimal morbidity.
