Abstract
Cysts of the mediastinum comprise a relatively diverse group of lesions that include neoplastic and nonneoplastic constituents, the latter of which are largely congenital in nature. Therefore, a grasp of their clinicopathologic characteristics is bolstered by knowledge of which tumors in the chest may undergo cystic change, as well as the embryologic development of the thoracic organs. That information, as well as radiological and pathologic features of these lesions, is discussed in this review.
