Bronchogenic cyst: a cause of pulmonary artery obstruction and breathlessness.

C J Worsnop1, H Teichtahl, C P Clarke.   

Abstract

A young woman presenting with breathlessness and a normal chest roentgenogram was found to have unilateral absent lung perfusion on an isotope scan. This was due to a bronchogenic cyst obstructing the right pulmonary artery. This is a rare cause of unilateral absence of lung perfusion and an unusual mode of presentation of a bronchogenic cyst.
