Abstract

Cystic lesions of the head and neck region are commonly seen and they are frequently misdiagnosed as tumours. Any swelling in the lateral part of the neck occurring in children and young adults should be suspected as a bronchial cyst. CTscan and MRI are very useful as important diagnostic aid in demonstrating the cystic nature and extensions of the Bronchial anomalies. The definite treatment for bronchial anomalies is a complete surgical excision. A case of bronchial cyst in a 24 year old female patient is presented which was successfully managed by complete surgical excision.
