Congenital cranial, cervical, and upper thoracic sinuses are rare conditions that historically have been classified according to their location and/or pathology. However, published reports of bronchogenic or branchial anomalies are on the increase, and the traditional defining characteristics--location and histopathology--are proving to be less reliable. We describe the pathologic and clinical findings of a congenital presternal pedunculated lesion with a sinus, and review the literature to describe its proper classification.
先天性颅、颈和上胸部窦是罕见疾病,历史上一直根据其位置和/或病理进行分类。然而,关于支气管源性或鳃源性异常的已发表报告正在增加,而传统的定义特征——位置和组织病理学——正被证明不太可靠。我们描述了一例伴有窦的先天性胸骨前带蒂病变的病理和临床发现,并回顾文献以描述其正确分类。
