Abstract
Background: Congenital pulmonary hypoplasia (CPH) is a rare pulmonary disease featured by incomplete development of pulmonary tissues. Its diagnosis is still a challenge as patients are usually misdiagnosed as atelectasis.
Case presentation: A female neonate was admitted to our hospital due to post-birth jaundice for 12 hrs. Physical examination showed accelerated breathing. There was no respiratory sound in the left lung. Chest film indicated decline of lucency in the left lung. Chest CT scan indicated absence of left lung and primary bronchus of the left lung. The boundary between left mediastinum was not clearly displayed. Three-dimensional CT scan indicated absence of left lung and left principal bronchus. Cardiac ultrasonography confirmed congenital heart disease. She showed ectopic kidney. Finally, she was diagnosed with CPH concurrent with congenital heart disease and ectopic kidney.
Conclusions: On 17-month follow-up visit, the patient is still survived, but she presents with obstruction in ventilation function.
期刊介绍：
Asian Biomedicine: Research, Reviews and News (ISSN 1905-7415 print; 1875-855X online) is published in one volume (of 6 bimonthly issues) a year since 2007. [...]Asian Biomedicine is an international, general medical and biomedical journal that aims to publish original peer-reviewed contributions dealing with various topics in the biomedical and health sciences from basic experimental to clinical aspects. The work and authorship must be strongly affiliated with a country in Asia, or with specific importance and relevance to the Asian region. The Journal will publish reviews, original experimental studies, observational studies, technical and clinical (case) reports, practice guidelines, historical perspectives of Asian biomedicine, clinicopathological conferences, and commentaries
Asian biomedicine is intended for a broad and international audience, primarily those in the health professions including researchers, physician practitioners, basic medical scientists, dentists, educators, administrators, those in the assistive professions, such as nurses, and the many types of allied health professionals in research and health care delivery systems including those in training.
