Abstract:
Gastric bronchogenic cysts (GBCs) is uncommon with atypical clinical features. It is difficult to diagnose by preoperative imaging examinations. Therefore
, postoperative histopatho-logical examination is regarded as the golden bacteria in ultimate diagnosis. The treatment of GBCs: ultrasound⁃guided fine needle aspiration and endoscopic mucosal resection is only used for small GBCs with intra⁃cavity growth pattern. However
, GBCs with extra⁃cavity growth pattern is featured with deeply anatomical position
, large size
, and prone on attaching to vital blood vessels and organs
, which makes laparoscopic resection is the first choice in treatment. The authors introduce the diagnosis and treatment of a case of GBCs attaching to lesser curvature
, in order to provide references for clinical diagnosis of GBCs.
