Selected patients with mediastinal cysts can be managed safely and
effectively by mediastinoscopic techniques. Small cysts in favorable
locations can be excised partially or nearly completely. Cysts that are
intimately associated with vital structures are better suited to
mediastinoscopic cystotomy and chemical sclerosis. Three cases are
presented and technical aspects are discussed.
