Congenital abnormal communications between separated pulmonary tissue and the oesophagus are rarities. Only about 50 cases have been reported in the literature. For all different forms the term of bronchopulmonary foregut malformation (BPFM) was first applied by Gerle and his coworkers in 1968. Major symptoms of this condition involved respiratory distress, cough, dyspnea, vomiting and repeated pneumonia. This paper presents reports of two own patients. In both cases was confirmed a bronchopulmonary foregut malformation in the lower right thorax with ectopic main bronchus communicating into the distal oesophagus. According to the literature we describe our own experience and discuss embryologic pathogenesis and surgical consequences for children.
