Intrathyroidal Bronchogenic Cysts: A report of two cases

Bronchogenic cysts are rare congenital anomalies arising from an abnormal budding of the primitive foregut or tracheobronchial tree. They are most commonly identified in the mediastinum though they can be found in the lung. Ectopic bronchogenic cysts are uncommon in clinical practice, and even rarer...

Sumario:Bronchogenic cysts are rare congenital anomalies arising from an abnormal budding of the primitive foregut or tracheobronchial tree. They are most commonly identified in the mediastinum though they can be found in the lung. Ectopic bronchogenic cysts are uncommon in clinical practice, and even rarer when located in the thyroid gland. We report here two cases of intrathyroidal bronchogenic cysts and discuss the patients’ outcomes.
