Abstract
A case of congenital bronchogenic cyst in the gastric mucosa is presented. The cyst was lined by pseudostratified epithelium and covered with ciliated cells. Congenital bronchogenic cysts should be differentiated from acquired gastric cysts lined with ciliated metaplastic cells that evolve as a result of environmental factors.
