Deskripsi
Lobar agenesis (LA) of the lung is a very uncommon congenital anomaly. Typically, the presentation is with respiratory symptoms, but the onset is highly variable. LA may be an isolated defect, but is often associated with congenital VACTERL anomalies. Here, we describe a neonate with agenesis of the middle and upper lobes of the right lung.
