RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Biliary ascariasis, although uncommon, can lead to infectious complications and severe outcomes. This study reported three patients with biliary ascariasis and who were admitted to a paediatric hospital in Salvador, Brazil. CASE REPORTS: Case 1: A 1-year-old boy, with HIV, hospitalised with diarrhoea, fever, pain, and abdominal distension. He underwent an exploratory laparotomy, which showed peritonitis secondary to a perforation of the hepatic duct by ascaris. Case 2: A 3-year-old boy admitted with fever, abdominal pain and jaundice. Imaging examination was suggestive of ascaris in the intrahepatic biliary tract and a hepatic abscess. Case 3: A 7-year-old boy who was hospitalised with a history of abdominal colic, jaundice and fever, with a suggestive image of ascaris in the biliary tract and evolution to sepsis. DISCUSSION: Three cases of biliary ascariasis were reported with severe infectious complications involving peritonitis, hepatic abscess and sepsis. CONCLUSION: In endemic regions, biliary ascariasis should be considered in cases with jaundice, abdominal pain and fever, due to its morbidity and risk of complications.

A malformacao Adenomatoide cistica pulmonar caracteriza-se pela presenca de hiperplasia adenomatoide epitelial do pulmao, contendo epitelio bronquico e cistos sem cartilagem. E uma lesao rara, parecendo estar relacionada com o desenvolvimento anormal de bronquios segmentares e lobares. E classificada em tres tipos: Tipo I- macrocistico, Tipo II- polimicrocistico e Tipo III- solido. Pode ser uni ou bilateral e acometer todos os lobos pulmonares, ocorrendo com mais frequencia nos inferiores. E responsavel por quadros de insuficienciarespiratoria aguda no periodo neonatal e de infeccao pulmonar em criancas maiores. Foram apresentados 3 casos, todos do sexo masculino. No caso 1, recem-nascidode 26 dias com disturbio respiratorio, a radiografia de torax mostrou a lesao ocupando todo o pulmao direito, o que indicou a realizacao de pneumectomia. O caso2, crianca de 16 meses, cursou co sinais de broncopneumonia. No caso 3, o paciente, com 1 dia de vida, apresentou, ao nascer, sinais de disturbio respiratorio grave. Nao houve complicacoes pos-operatorias e nem obito
