A 7-month-old girl was admitted with severe respiratory distress. Chest roentgenogram showed hyperinflation of the right middle lobe and mediastinal shift. Bronchogram showed tracheal lobe displaced superiorly by the hyperinflated right middle lobe. Echocardiography showed left-to-right shunt at the ventricular level. The patient responded well after surgical correction of cardiac defect. Four years after the operation, computed tomography examinations showed no evidence of emphysema.

The tissue preserving resections for non-small-cell bronchial carcinoma were grouped into 3 main categories: I. bronchoplastic procedures, II. angioplastic procedures, and III. concomitant bronchoplastic and angioplastic procedures, and into the subgroups of standard and extended sleeve resections. The indications were: elderly patients, impaired respiratory reserve, limited tumor growth, and palliative surgery. The analysis of 229 cases yielded follow-up data in 192 cases. The estimated 5-year survival rates were 34% in category I, 19% in II, and 14% in III. The decreasing survival is due to greater tumor burden. The operative mortality rate was 8.9% in category I, and 17% in category III, and therefore comparable with standard or extended pneumonectomy respectively. Surgical techniques and postoperative complications are discussed.
The association of bronchogenic carcinoma and pregnancy is a rare event. If current smoking patterns of women continue, it will be seen with increased frequency. We discuss the diagnostic problems in such a case. Therefore too suspicious symptoms in pregnancy need to be evaluated.
