Bronchogenic Cyst and Pericardial Agenesis: A Case Report

Bronchogenic cysts are a rare congenital condition, and their association with pericardial agenesis is even more uncommon. We present the case of a 23-year-old patient who was diagnosed with an upper lobe bronchogenic cyst and subsequently underwent an upper lobectomy. Further evaluation revealed the presence of complete left pericardial agenesis.

Abstract

Bronchogenic cysts are a rare congenital condition, and their association with pericardial agenesis is even more uncommon. We present the case of a 23-year-old patient who was diagnosed with an upper lobe bronchogenic cyst and subsequently underwent an upper lobectomy. Further evaluation revealed the presence of complete left pericardial agenesis.
