[Bronchogenic cyst disclosed by pericarditis. Value of transesophageal echocardiography apropos of a case].
Pericarditis is one of the possible complications of mediastinal teratoma. Bronchogenic cysts are the commonest mediastinal cysts and may be observed at any age. We report our diagnosis of a bronchogenic cyst by transoesophageal echocardiography. It was successfully excised surgically. This is the eleventh case published in the world literature.
