Title: Recurrent bronchogenic cyst causing recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy. Author: Rice DC, Putnam JB. Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2002 Mar; 21(3):561-3. PubMed ID: 11888786. Abstract: A case of a 50-year-old male who developed left recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy due to a bronchogenic cyst is presented.

This case highlights the need for complete excision of these cysts and the lack of efficacy of cyst aspiration.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
