Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FFB) has become common practice for pediatric pulmonologists, allowing easier detection of certain abnormalities at an earlier stage. We report the endoscopic diagnosis of a large mediastinal bronchogenic cyst and its successful endoscopic unroofing in a symptomatic baby.
