  • Title: Right tracheal bronchus in an infant with congenital diaphragmatic hernia.
    Author: Ashmeade T, Carver JD.
    Journal: Am J Perinatol; 2009 Oct; 26(9):621-3. PubMed ID: 19444767.
    Abstract:
    Neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) often have other major malformations. Anatomic airway anomalies associated with CDH include congenital stenosis, pulmonary hypoplasia, and abnormal bronchial branching. We describe an infant with CDH who, after developing recurrent upper-lobe atelectasis, was found to have a right tracheal bronchus. This clinically significant anomaly can have important and potentially preventable adverse consequences.
