Mediastinal neurenteric cysts are the least common types of the bronchopulmonary foregut malformations, and their antenatal diagnosis is rare.

The diagnosis was confirmed on postnatal magnetic resonance imaging and at the time of operation.

Neurulation

Neurulation is the embryological process which forms the precursors of the central nervous system and occurs after gastrulation has established the three primary cell layers of the embryo: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. In humans, the majority of this system is formed via primary neurulation, in which the central portion of the ectoderm—originally appearing as a flat sheet of cells—folds upwards and inwards, sealing off to form a hollow neural tube. As development proceeds, the anterior...
