DETECTION OF RARE CONGENITAL TRACHEAL ANOMALIES BY MULTIDETECTOR CT IN AN INFANT

A 3 month- old boy was admitted with recurrent severe respiratory distress and refractory to therapeutic options. Patient underwent a helical multidetector CT examination. Axial, coronal and three- dimensional imaging, revealed tracheal bronchus, stenosis, diverticulum and bronchiectasis. In this si...

description A 3 month- old boy was admitted with recurrent severe respiratory distress and refractory to therapeutic options. Patient underwent a helical multidetector CT examination. Axial, coronal and three- dimensional imaging, revealed tracheal bronchus, stenosis, diverticulum and bronchiectasis. In this situation, CT scanning, Perfectly 3D imaging is recommend for rule out congenital tracheobronchial tree anomalies. Therefore, with proper evaluation and therapeutic options we can prevent pulmonary complications and infantile mortality.
