Abstract
Bronchogenic cysts are congenital anomalies of the respiratory tract, which can affect children or adults. In adults, these cysts may be asymptomatic or present with symptoms, most often pain or cough. Intrapericardial cysts are rare and represent 27% of bronchogenic cysts. We present the case of a symptomatic adult with an intrapericardial bronchogenic cyst, who underwent surgical resection of the cyst, which successfully relieved his symptoms.Entities:
