Pulmonary Agenesis and Hypoplasia.
In recent years the more frequent use of x-rays has revealed various congenital abnormalities of the lungs which had formerly passed undetected during life, since the clinical signs and symptoms may be minimal. An attempt is made here to elucidate the different pictures which may be seen in varying degrees of underdevelopment of the lungs. For clarity of description the following nomenclature i...
متن کاملPulmonary Artery Agenesis and Lung Hypoplasia
Unilateral pulmonary artery agenesis with lung hypoplasia is very rare and only a few cases have been reported in the literature. Some patients with hypoplasia may suffer from recurrent hemoptysis dyspnea, and lung infections. Other patients are asymptomatic. Chest X-Ray reveal a reduction in the volume of hemithorax, an elevation in the diaphragm, reduced intercostals spaces and mediastinal sh...
متن کاملEsophageal Atresia and Tracheoesophageal Fistula with Unilateral Pulmonary Agenesis - Hypoplasia
Association of unilateral severe pulmonary hypoplasia or agenesis and esophageal atresia (EA) with or without tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is an exceedingly rare and highly lethal combination. We report a case of full term male baby who had EA with TEF and right lung hypoplasia, managed at our centre. He is alive and doing well at 10 years of age.
متن کاملPulmonary hypoplasia and congenital renal anomalies
The association of pulmonary hypoplasia with bilateral renal agenesis is well recognised. It is important, however, for clinicians to be aware that pulmonary hypoplasia does occur with other congenital renal anomalies and worsens the prognosis. The aims of this review are to highlight other kidney and associated pulmonary abnormalities, describe the mechanisms of abnormal lung growth associated...
متن کاملRenal Hypoplasia in a Calf
Renal hypoplasia refers to a congenitally small kidney where there is essentially normal residual parenchyma but smaller calyces, lobules, and papillae. This anomaly can be divided into two broad groups: complete (global) renal hypoplasia and segmental renal hypoplasia. In this study, a 3 days-old simmental calf was diagnosed with renal hypoplasia and unreconstructed exstrophic bladder. It pres...
