MR evaluation of right pulmonary agenesis and vascular airway compression in pediatric patients

B Newman and M Gondor
Department of Radiology, Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, PA, USA.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the spectrum of airway and vascular anomalies in agenesis of the right lung and to assess the role of imaging in defining the anatomy. CONCLUSION: Symptomatic children with right lung agenesis often have anatomic distortion of the airway with vascular compression, and occasionally they have intrinsic airway stenosis. MR imaging most accurately defines the entire spectrum of airway and vascular anatomic abnormalities. Precise delineation of the anatomy is essential in patient management and surgical planning.
