title: Recurrent mediastinal bronchogenic cyst.
abstract: A patient with a new mediastinal mass 25 years after resection of a mediastinal bronchogenic cyst is presented. Computed tomography and subsequent thoracotomy revealed a recurrent bronchogenic cyst. This case illustrates that incompletely resected mediastinal bronchogenic cysts may recur many years later.
