In this report we discussed the case of a male infant with a large neurenteric cyst causing respiratory distress. In addition he had Th6-7 hemivertebrae. In the evaluation of the patient, X-ray and computed tomography were used. The cyst did not communicate with spinal column and intestinal tract; it was excised via a right posterolateral thoracotomy. The patient was discharged in good condition.
