A case of double paramediastinal air cyst is described. The diagnosis is easy if the identity is known. Spontaneous regression was always the outcome in the cases published so far. No treatment is necessary. Radiologic examination should include only films of the chest and baryum swallow. The lesion must be recognised in order to avoid unnecessary diagnostic and therapeutic measures.
