  • Title: [Aplasia and hypoplasia of the lung (author's transl)].
    Author: Vielhaber K, Mennicken U, Bützler HO, Franz CH, Hofmann P.
    Journal: Monatsschr Kinderheilkd (1902); 1977 Mar; 125(3):153-60. PubMed ID: 859506.
    Abstract:
    The different forms of aplasia and hypoplasia of the lung are described. Differences in anatomic structure, prognosis and concomitant congenital anomalies suggest two special forms of hypoplasia of the lung: a) aplasia of one lobe of a lung with hypoplasia of the rest of the lung--b) hypoplasia of all parts of a lung. Bronchographic and angiographic studies are necessary for the differentiation between the special forms of hypoplasia of a lung and diseases with similar radiographic findings. The possible combination of hypoplasia of one lung with ipsilateral anomalies is pointed out.
