[Late results after pulmonary middle lobe resections in childhood (author's transl)].
15 of 19 children with typical middle-lobe syndrome were reinvestigated 4 to 10 years after surgical treatment. Morphological and functional alterations as a result of middle-lobe resection are of minor importance. The treatment of choice in childhood is the pulmonary lobe resection. Late effects of bronchiolitis follicularis are important because multifocal spread of infection seems to be possible.
