Lingual Bronchogenic Cyst: A Case Report and Literature Review of a Rare Pathology.

Choristomas are rare, benign embryonic tumors characterized by normal tissue appearing in abnormal sites. When lined with respiratory epithelium, they are classified as bronchogenic cysts. While these cysts most commonly occur in the mediastinum or other thoracic regions, their occurrence on the tongue is exceedingly rare. Here, we present the case of a four-year-old boy diagnosed with a bronchogenic cyst of the tongue, highlighting its clinical and histological features, diagnosis, and management, along with a review of the literature.
