Abstract
Intramural oesophageal cysts lined by ciliated columnar epithelium are considered to be lesions which are not prone to serious complications except infection. In contrast to this view, a case of intramural oesophageal cyst recently operated upon by us, in which severe mediastinal bleeding developed, is described.Keywords
