Abstract
Bronchogenic cysts are congenital anomalies that are typically found in the mediastinum or within the lung. Subcutaneous and cutaneous lesions are rare and most likely represent ectopic or displaced mesenchyme during early development. We report the presentation and results of resection of a suprasternal, subcutaneous bronchogenic cyst in a 23-month-old female infant that was successfully treated with simple excision.Entities:
