Showing 1 Abstract.

The differential diagnoses of pulmonary asymmetry beyond pleural effusion and lobar pneumonia are broad. Diseases that manifest uniquely in the pediatric population, such as congenital diaphragmatic hernia and unilateral pulmonary agenesis, may have remarkably similar radiographic findings, with Computed Tomography (CT) reliably distinguishing the two. Readers of this exhibit will gain a comprehensive understanding of ● Common and uncommon pediatric conditions resulting in pulmonary asymmetry on radiography, with CT correlation, ● Epidemiology, embryological origins, and clinical management of these cases. Table of Contents/Outline: ● Introduction ● Goals and objectives ● Review of cases demonstrating pulmonary asymmetry on radiography with CT correlate in the pediatric population ● Key teaching points in identifying radiograph and CT abnormalities in each case ● Epidemiology, embryological origins, and clinical management of the cases presented. Conditions discussed include: ● Pulmonary agenesis ● Congenital diaphragmatic hernia ● Foregut duplication cyst ● Congenital pulmonary airway malformation ● Bronchial atresia ● Foreign body aspiration ● Swyer-James Syndrome ● Scimitar syndrome ● Bronchopulmonary sequestration ● Congenital lobar emphysema ● Unilateral absence of pulmonary artery ● Poland syndrome Read More
