Congenital lobar overinflation (CLO) is a rare congenital pulmonary abnormality characterized by progressive overexpansion of a lobe(s) exerting mass effect on the remaining lobes and the mediastinum. Bilateral involvement is extremely rare and has been reported only a handful of times. We present a case of bilateral congenital lobar overinflation in a term female neonate managed with single-step bilateral lobectomies.
先天性肺叶过度充气(CLO)是一种罕见的先天性肺部异常,其特征为一个或多个肺叶进行性过度扩张,对其余肺叶和纵隔产生占位效应。双侧受累极为罕见,仅有少数病例报道。我们报告一例足月女新生儿双侧先天性肺叶过度充气的病例,采用单步双侧肺叶切除术进行治疗。
