Pulmonary blastoma is a very rare malignant primary lung neoplasm, especially in the pediatric population. No more than 50 cases have been described in children, with none if these children diagnosed before the age of 1 month. Speculation regarding its congenital nature has been made. Although is has a uniformly poor prognosis, the case presented is that of congenital pulmonary blastoma as a unique cause of fatal respiratory distress in a neonate.
肺母细胞瘤是一种非常罕见的原发性肺恶性肿瘤,在儿童群体中尤为少见。儿童病例报道不超过50例,1个月龄前确诊的尚无报道。关于其先天性本质已有推测。尽管预后普遍较差,但本文报道的是一例先天性肺母细胞瘤,是新生儿致命性呼吸窘迫的独特病因。
