The objective of this study was to review the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment outcomes of patients with bronchogenic cysts in the head and neck region.
A retrospective chart review was performed at Chonnam National University Hwasun Hospital from January 2006 to May 2016.
Eight patients with a final diagnosis of bronchogenic cyst in the head and neck region were identified based on their medical records. The most common location for the head and neck lymphatic malformations was the neck (4 patients), followed by the soft palate (1 patient), the posterior pharyngeal wall (1 patient), the floor of mouth (1 patient), and the arytenoid (1 patient). The size of the lymphatic malformations ranged from 1 to 6 cm. Bronchogenic cysts recurred in 2 patients. Both these patients were disease-free after the revision operation. No major complications resulting from the surgical intervention were observed.
Bronchogenic cysts are rare congenital malformations and they can occur at various sites in the head and neck region. Bronchogenic cyst should be considered in the differential diagnosis of midline and lateral neck masses or intraoral cysts.
本研究的目的是回顾头颈部支气管源性囊肿患者的临床特征及手术治疗结果。
对2006年1月至2016年5月在全南国立大学和顺医院进行的病历进行回顾性分析。
根据病历确定了8例最终诊断为头颈部支气管源性囊肿的患者。头颈部淋巴管畸形最常见的部位是颈部（4例），其次是软腭（1例）、咽后壁（1例）、口底（1例）和杓状软骨（1例）。淋巴管畸形的大小为1至6厘米。2例患者支气管源性囊肿复发。这2例患者在翻修手术后均无疾病。未观察到手术干预引起的重大并发症。
支气管源性囊肿是罕见的先天性畸形，可发生于头颈部的各个部位。在中线和侧颈部肿块或口腔内囊肿的鉴别诊断中应考虑支气管源性囊肿。
