Two rare congenital lesions, cervical bronchogenic cysts, were found in a child near the larynx. These benign growths can mimic tumors and cause breathing issues, presenting here as a hoarse voice.

Area of Science:

  • Congenital malformations
  • Pediatric respiratory diseases
  • Head and neck surgery

Background:

  • Bronchogenic cysts are rare, benign congenital anomalies arising from abnormal tracheobronchial tree development.
  • Typically presenting in the first decade of life, they are most commonly found in the mediastinum or lung parenchyma.
  • Occasionally, these cysts can occur in the neck, potentially mimicking neoplasms and causing airway obstruction.

Observation:

  • A pediatric case involving two adjacent cervical bronchogenic cysts located near the larynx is presented.
  • The child's primary symptom was a hoarse voice, indicating potential laryngeal or upper airway involvement.
  • The cysts' cervical location and presentation mimicked a neoplastic process.

Findings:

  • The study details the diagnosis and management of cervical bronchogenic cysts in a pediatric patient.

  • Confirmation of the cystic nature and benign histology of the lesions is implied.
  • The association between cervical bronchogenic cysts and hoarseness due to proximity to the larynx is highlighted.

    • Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of considering rare congenital lesions in the differential diagnosis of neck masses in children.
    • Cervical bronchogenic cysts, though uncommon, can present with significant symptoms like hoarseness and airway compromise.
    • Early recognition and appropriate surgical management are crucial for favorable outcomes in pediatric patients with cervical bronchogenic cysts.
