    Author: Di Luozzo G, Kim HB, Boiselle PM, Colin AA, Fishman SJ.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2005 Jan; 79(1):331-4. PubMed ID: 15620974.
    Abstract:
    A multidisciplinary approach revealed an absent right upper lobe bronchus and atretic bronchioles in a child with recurrent pulmonary infections. Use of a multidimensional computed tomographic scan and bronchoscopy clearly delineated the anatomical aberration. The child underwent an uncomplicated right upper anterior segmentectomy with an expedient recovery.
