Abstract
- Congenital cystic disease of the lung represents pulmonary sequestration, congenital lobar emphysema, bronchogenic cyst and congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation. It has a variety of clinical manifestations from immediate postnatal respiratory distress to heart failure. Pulmonary sequestration sometimes causes heart failure in neonates through a shunt between an anomalous systemic feeding artery and the pulmonary venous system. We hereby report a case with both pulmonary sequestration and congenital lobar emphysema presenting with congestive heart failure and pulmonary hypertension, which improved after lobectomy.
