A congenital lung cyst, initially misdiagnosed as a cervical cystic hygroma, was successfully treated with surgical excision. This case highlights the importance of accurate diagnosis for rare congenital lung anomalies.

Area of Science:

Pediatric Surgery
Thoracic Surgery
Congenital Malformations

Background:

Congenital lung cysts are rare developmental anomalies of the lung.
Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management and to avoid misdiagnosis with other neck and thoracic masses.

Observation:

A congenital lung cyst presented as a transilluminant mass in the supraclavicular region.
Initial clinical impression suggested a cervical cystic hygroma with intrathoracic extension.

Findings:

Radiographic imaging, including X-ray and CT scan of the neck and chest, confirmed the diagnosis of a congenital lung cyst.
Surgical excision was performed for definitive treatment.

Implications:

This case underscores the diagnostic challenges posed by congenital lung cysts.
