Periscapular bronchogenic cysts are rare, often presenting late and misdiagnosed. Complete surgical excision is the standard treatment, with preoperative imaging crucial for detecting thoracic extensions.

Area of Science:

  • Thoracic surgery
  • Pediatric surgery
  • Diagnostic imaging

Background:

  • Bronchogenic cysts are congenital lung malformations.
  • Periscapular location is an exceptionally rare presentation.
  • Early diagnosis and treatment are essential.

Observation:

  • A ten-year-old boy presented with a periscapular mass.
  • The cyst was initially misdiagnosed as a sebaceous cyst.
  • Preoperative imaging revealed no intrathoracic extension.

Findings:

  • Histological examination confirmed a bronchogenic cyst.
  • The cyst was lined by pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium.
  • Malignant transformation is a rare possibility.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of considering rare diagnoses in pediatric masses.
  • Emphasizes the role of preoperative imaging in surgical planning.
  • Underscores the need for complete excision to prevent recurrence and malignant change.
