Abstract

[Objective] To investigate the manifestation of CT in congenital bronchogenic cysts.[Methods] 49 pantients(total 63 cysts)with pathologically-confirmed bronchogenic cysts were enrolled,and their site,number,size,shape,density,cystic wall,inside and the neighboring field.[Results] within 63 cysts,18 cysts were located in mediastinal,45 cysts were located lung.33 cysts in lower lobars.There are 17 liquid cysts,23 air-liquid cysts,5 air cyst.Liquid cysts were compared by nonenhancement and enhancement CT scan,walled of cyst was enhanced equally,liguid of cyst was nonenhanced.Calcification of the cystic wall was found in 14 cysts,within the cyst was found in 9 cysts.[Conclusions] The CT manifestation of congenital bronchogenic cyst are characteristic.
