RESUMO

Congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAM) compose the major part of congenital lung malformations (CLM) and have traditionally been treated by pulmonary lobectomy. In terms of surgical strategy, lobectomy has conventionally been the preferred treatment for CPAM localized to a single lobe. More recently, alternative approaches including lung-sparing resections (LSR), such as wedge or non-anatomic resections and segmentectomy, have been suggested. In asymptomatic CPAM early surgical resection is often shown to reduce infection and malignancy development. We describe two patients who were diagnosed with CPAM when being evaluated for respiratory tract infection. Patient 1 (P1) was a two-month-old infant weighing 4 kg with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency and Patient 2 (P2) was a toddler aged one year, nine months weighing 9 kg. P1 underwent LSR for the CPAM diagnosed in the left upper lobe of the lung with conventional mechanical ventilation whilst right upper lobectomy was performed in P2 using one/single lung ventilation. In both cases, LSR and right upper lobectomy led to an uneventful postoperative recovery with no complications reported.
