We describe a case of H1N1 pneumonia with left upper lobe bronchial atresia. Although bronchial atresia as an isolated occurrence is an innocuous finding, but when it is superimposed by another major insult, it can amplify the disease effect and can have adverse implications leading to significant morbidity. This report highlights the fact that anatomical anomalies can be the cause of inordinately severe or prolonged course of acute respiratory infection in children.
我们描述了一例伴有左上叶支气管闭锁的甲型H1N1肺炎病例。尽管孤立存在的支气管闭锁是一种无害的表现,但当它叠加另一种严重损害时,可能会放大疾病效应并产生不良影响,导致显著的发病率。本报告强调了解剖学异常可能是儿童急性呼吸道感染病程异常严重或延长的原因这一事实。
