Bronchogenic cysts either are rare or are rarely reported. In 1889 Hare1collected 520 cases of mediastinal disease from the literature and did not find any cases of bronchogenic cyst. From a review of the cases of congenital cysts of the lung reported by one of us (A. R. K.) in 1925,2it is now obvious that some of them were bronchogenic cysts, namely, those of Stilling,3Zahn,4Linser,5Hammar,6Buchmann7(one of the five cases reported by him), and Gold8(probably all of his four cases). If the case reported by Meyer9in 1859, of a six-month fetus, in which there was found a cyst the size of a hazelnut at the hilus of the right lung, communicating with the bronchus, was that of a true bronchogenic cyst, this case is probably the first on record.
