Congenital lobar emphysema is a rare form of congenital malformation of the lungs characterized by over distension of a lobe of lung due to partial obstruction of the bronchus. The case that we are reporting is a 7 months baby admitted in the pediatric department with symptoms and signs of bronchiolitis/ bronchopneumonia. Chest x-ray showed partial consolidation of right upper and lower lobes and lobar emphysema of the left upper lobe. Computerized tomography of thorax showed emphysema of the left upper lobe. The baby was treated conservatively and discharged home safely followed by regular follow up visits. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
