[Successfully operated cases of mediastinal and retroperitoneal bronchial cysts].
METHODS
Two young men were operated in our department for bronchiogen cysts with unusual locations. In the first case a mediastinal cyst caused severe swallowing problems, while in the second a retroperitoneal cyst resembled to an adrenal adenoma. It was only the postoperative histology, which clarified the exact diagnosis of the removed cysts.


CONCLUSIONS
Only a few percent of mediastinal tumours are bronchial cysts that develop due to developmental disorders. Symptomatic ones are more easily detectable. Bronchial cysts localized in the abdominal cavity or retroperitoneum are especially rare. In most of the cases the final diagnosis is made only after excision with histological examination of the cyst.
