Abstract: | We describe here an infant with a large, solitary, fluid-filled lung cyst and hyperinflation of adjacent lung tissue in the same lobe. The combination of a fluid-filled cyst and ectatic emphysema in the same lobe suggests bronchial collapse and airway obstruction as a contributory mechanism for this unusual roentgenographic presentation of a congenital cystic malformation of the lung.This investigation was supported in part by a grant (RR-81) from the General Clinical Research Centers Program of the Division of Research Resources, National Institutes of Health and by Grant HD-00049 from the National Institutes of Health |
