malformations
067 – Lower Right Lobular Bronchus
Distribution anomaly: in hour 3 appear two segmental bronchi. The outermost of the image it’s the apical of the right lower lobe (RB6) and below it there is an accessory subapical.
066 – Right Upper Lobe Bronchus
“Star” distribution for the segments of the right upper lobe, which are presented as five bronchi.
065 – Left Tracheal Bronchus
Left tracheal bronchus: infrequent variant of ventilation of the apicoposterior segment(LB1 + 2) of the left upper lobe, which now does it directly from trachea.
064 – Tracheal Bronchus
Distribution anomaly: Tracheal bronchus. It is the most common congenital anomaly of the tracheobronchial tree. In this case is missing the upper right lobe as branch of the source bronchus and It is also called porcine bronchus, because it is the normal distribution in the pig.
063 – Tracheal Bronchus
Distribution anomaly: tracheal bronchus. An additional bronchus is born in the right side wall and heads to the homolateral upper lobe. Depending on its location, the tracheal bronchus can cause exclusive atelectasis of the superior lobe during anesthetic intubation.
062 – Klippel Feil Syndrome
Distribution anomaly: Tracheal bronchus. Part of the right upper lobe is ventilated thanks to a bronchus that has shifted during the embryonic phase of lung development so that it is born directly from the trachea. Sometimes, this bronchus only leads to the apical segment of the right upper lobe and is, in these cases, a “supernumerary” bronchus. It can be … Read more
