Bronchogenic Cyst and Pericardial Agenesis: A Case Report

Year: 2024

Type: article

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.
