Childhood ARDS is mostly caused by pneumonia. Pulmonary pseudocysts are reported in adults recovering from ARDS, usually in non-dependent lung regions. We present a 1.5-year-old boy, who survived severe pulmonary ARDS with development of pulmonary giant pseudocysts and other structural abnormalities in dependent lung region. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first follow up report of pulmonary abnormality In a toddler with ARDS of extreme severity.
儿童急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)主要由肺炎引起。成人在从 ARDS 中恢复时会出现肺假性囊肿,通常位于非依赖区肺部。我们报告了一例 1.5 岁男孩,他在严重的肺 ARDS 后存活下来,但在依赖区肺部出现了肺巨大假性囊肿和其他结构异常。据我们所知,这是首例关于极重度 ARDS 患儿肺部异常的随访报告。
