Mass Effect of Pulmonary Sequestration: Multiloculated–Multiseptated Pneumomediastinum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Pulmonary sequestration (PS) and pneumomediastinum are two rare clinical diseases. Pneumomediastinum was generally observed in infants either with diseased lungs or who were performed assisted ventilation or resuscitation following birth. It was reported in patients with existing ectopic thoracic kidney and laryngeal cysts however, no coexisting congenital lung anomalies were reported. Here, we report the pneumomediastinum occurred due the extralobar PS because of the mass effect of the lesion.

Pulmonary sequestration is a rare cystic malformation composed of bronchopulmonary tissue that is discontinuous from the tracheobronchial tree and has an anomalous systemic blood supply. We present a case of a 40-year old male who presented with an extralobar pulmonary sequestration and underwent a laparoscopic retroperitoneal mass excision. Preoperative imaging revealed a large 11.3-cm retrope...

Purpose: Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare congenital lung malformation. It is characterized by an abnormal mass of dysplastic lung tissue supplied by an anomalous systemic artery and separated from normal bronchopulmonary tree. Misdiagnosis and inadequate treatment can lead to recurrent pneumonia and fatal hemoptysis. Methods: We report a 45 years female was diagnosed PS, and performed a ...

It is with great interest that we read the paper entitled, “A rare case of giant multiseptated thoracic myelomeningocele with segmental placode” by Patnaik and Mahapatra.[4] The authors described a rare presentation of a thoracic spinal dysraphism. The child they presented had no neurological and urologic deterioration, which is very uncommon in a thoracic myelomeningocele, and the magnetic res...

Infradiaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestration is an extremely rare congenital malformation. It is more frequently diagnosed in the antenatal period due to routine ultrasonic examination of the fetus or in the first 6 months of life, though on rare occasions it is discovered incidentally in adults. A 32-yr-old man presenting with epigastric discomfort and fever was referred. Computed tom...

Foreign Body Aspiration (FBA) is a common and sometimes life-threatening problem in children and in higher age groups. FBA highest incidence rate is during the second year in children and the sixth decade of life in adults, and often foreign bodies due to their shape and size pass through larynx and trachea and place in bronchi. The most common aspirated body by children are nuts. Symptoms of a...
