Abstract: Bronchogenic cysts are congenital cystic lesions of foregut origin, usually intrapulmonary or mediastinal, while esophageal cysts generally originate within the esophagus. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a case of a completely intramural bronchogenic cyst of the cervical esophagus in a neonate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
