ABSTRACT
Los quistes broncogénicos son lesiones benignas inhabituales que tienen su origen durante la embriogénesis del intestino proximal primitivo y se localizan principalmente en el pulmón. Están revestidos por epitelio cuboideo o columnar seudoestratificado y ciliado, conteniendo en su pared fibras elásticas, músculo liso, glándulas seromucinosas análogas a las bronquiales y/o cartílago. Los quistes broncogénicos gástricos son extremadamente raros, existiendo muy pocos casos descritos en la literatura. Suelen dar sintomatología compresiva, siendo el principal diagnóstico diferencial el GIST y el tratamiento habitual es resección quirúrgica del mismo
Bronchogenic cysts are rare benign lesions that arise during embryogenesis of the primitive proximal intestine and are located primarily in the lung. They are lined with cuboid or columnar pseudostratified and ciliated epithelium and have elastic fibers, smooth muscle, bronchial glands and cartilage in their walls. Gastric bronchogenic cysts are extremely rare with very few reported cases. Symptoms are usually caused by compression. GIST is the main differential diagnosis and the treatment is surgical resection
