Multiple cutaneous bronchogenic cysts located on the neck and the scalp. A case report.
Bronchogenic cyst is a benign congenital developmental abnormality of the embryonic foregut. The skin is a rare site for bronchogenic cysts, and in this location it is often a solitary lesion. It is poorly recognized by clinicians and in almost all cases the diagnosis is established by histopathologic examination. This report documents a new case of multiple cutaneous bronchogenic cysts bilaterally located on the neck and on the scalp, which are unusual locations of this lesion.
