Congenital tracheal stenosis with associated cardiopulmonary anomalies: report of two cases with a review of the literature

Pediatric Pulmonology
J R VolandB Saunders

Abstract

We present two infants with congenital tracheal stenosis with complete tracheal rings. Both had associated congenital anomalies. The first case showed cardiac malformations, and the second case had agenesis of the right lung. We review the literature, in particular with reference to tracheal stenosis and pulmonary agenesis. We also propose that the constellation of anomalies may result from defects in the cervical mesenchyme and, as such, may represent one end of a spectrum of cervical mesenchymal field defects.
