title: Congenital lobar emphysema in congenital cytomegalovirus infection.
abstract: We report a case of congenital lobar emphysema diagnosed antenatally in an infant of 32 weeks' gestation. Histology and serology confirmed infection with cytomegalovirus (CMV). CMV pneumonitis leading to inflammation and obstruction in the bronchial tree may have resulted in the development of congenital lobar emphysema.
