In neonates and infants, the trachea and main bronchus may be compressed by adjacent cardiovascular structures. Compression of the main bronchi by the patent ductus arteriosus is rare and causes a variety of respiratory problems. Surgical closure of the patent ductus arteriosus that compresses the main bronchus as soon as possible is an effective treatment option. Rapid clinical recovery is expected after surgical closure of the patent ductus arteriosus. We present a case of patent ductus arteriosus which caused obstruction of the left main bronchus.
在新生儿和婴儿中，气管和主支气管可能会被相邻的心血管结构压迫。动脉导管未闭压迫主支气管较为罕见，但可导致多种呼吸问题。尽快通过手术闭合压迫主支气管的动脉导管未闭是一种有效的治疗选择。在手术闭合动脉导管未闭后，预计会迅速临床康复。我们报告了一例动脉导管未闭导致左主支气管阻塞的病例。
