What is generally associated with tracheoesophageal fistula? what causes it?
|
1) esophageal atresia and polyhydraminos
2) failure of tracheoesophageal septum to form |
|
What is the most common tracheoesophageal fistula?
|
proximal esophageal atresia with a fistula between distal end of esophagous and trachea
|
|

|
tracheoesophageal fistula
|

|
what supplies a bronchopulmonary segment?
|
tertiary or segmental bronchus
|
|
What do surgeons look at to remove parts of a lung instead of a whole lobe?
|
bronchopulmonary segments
|
|
What causes congenital neonatal emphysema?
|
collapsed bronchi from failure of bronchial cartilage development
|
|
What causes congenital bronchial cysts? How are they recognized on x-ray?
|
1) dilation of bronchi that fill with air or fluid
2) honeycomb appearance |
|
What direction does the lung develop? Why is lung development termed heterogeneous?
|
1) proximal to distal

|
yes
|
|
what is pulmonary hypoplasia commonly associated with?
|
1) congenital diaphragmatic hernia which compresses lung
2) B/L renal agenesis which results in oligohydraminos increasing pressure on fetal thorax |
