Cystic lesions can be occasionally be found in the mediastinum, and typically include bronchogenic cysts, esophageal duplication cysts, and neuroenteric cysts. In 2005, Hattori described the first mediastinal cyst with Mullerian differentiation. Since that time, three other authors have described similar cysts occurring in the posterior mediastinum. Here we present two cases of patients with ciliated cysts with Mullerian differentiation with expression of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, PAX8 and Wilm's tumor 1, occurring in the posterior mediastinum and review the related literature.
纵隔中偶尔可发现囊性病变,通常包括支气管源性囊肿、食管重复囊肿和神经肠囊肿。2005 年,Hattori 描述了首例具有苗勒氏分化的纵隔囊肿。此后,又有三位作者描述了类似的囊肿发生在后纵隔。在此,我们报告了两例具有苗勒氏分化的纤毛囊肿,伴雌激素受体、孕激素受体、PAX8 和 Wilm 瘤 1 的表达,发生在后纵隔,并复习相关文献。
