[Hyperlucent pulmonary areas caused by stenosis or bronchial atresia in children].
From 1976 to 1979, 4 congenital bronchial abnormalities (1 stenosis, 3 atresias) have been observed and cured at Hospital des Enfants Malades Paris. The pulmonary distension with impaction of mucous secretion evocates the diagnosis. The bronchography shows the stenosis of the atresia. The pulmonary function testing confirms the hypoperfusion and the hypoventilation. The surgical indication is done in order to prevent complications and to suppress the compression of the lung. The results are good. The pulmonary testing function is correct long while after the operation. The authors discuss the surgical indication in function of the increasing of the lung.
