  • Primary repair of tetralogy of Fallot combined with unilateral left Lung Agenesis with crossed-ectopic right lower lobe
    Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2016
    Co-Authors: Michael Malyshev, Alexander Safuanov, Anton Malyshev, Dmitry Siniukov, Andrew Rostovykh
    Abstract:

    Unilateral Lung Agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly often combined with congenital malformations of different systems. A case of tetralogy of Fallot repair with unilateral left Lung Agenesis via median sternotomy is described for the first time. In this case, the choice of surgical approach to the heart could be affected by the fears of not getting optimal surgical exposition via median sternotomy due to severe displacement of the chest organs. The case demonstrates the median sternotomy as an optimal surgical approach even in high degrees of organ displacement caused by a combination of left pulmonary Agenesis and cardiac lesions.

  • Mardini-Nyhan association (Lung Agenesis, congenital heart, and thumb anomalies): three new cases and possible recurrence in a sib-is there a distinct recessive syndrome?
    American journal of medical genetics. Part A, 2020
    Co-Authors: Rob Hastings, David Harding, Alan Donaldson, Rachel Liebling, Alison Hayes, Alison Kraus, Shelagh Joss, Shuba Narayanaswamy, Peter Turnpenny, Sarah Smithson
    Abstract:

    In 1985, Mardini and Nyhan described three patients from consanguineous families with unilateral complete/partial Lung Agenesis, congenital cardiac defects, and ipsilateral thumb anomalies. Although there have been many reports of Lung Agenesis with other malformations, especially hemifacial microsomia and radial ray anomalies, very few demonstrate this triad of defects. We describe three patients with the Mardini-Nyhan association which may represent a distinct entity, although this remains uncertain at present. A fourth patient is also described, the sister of one of the other patients, with complex congenital cardiac disease and bilateral Lung lobation abnormalities. This is the first reported incidence of a possible recurrence within a family and suggests, together with the consanguinity observed by Mardini and Nyhan, that recessive inheritance should be considered in genetic counseling for this disorder.

  • unilateral left Lung Agenesis with crossed ectopic right lower lobe combined tricuspid atresia diagnosed by ecg gated computed tomography
    The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2010
    Co-Authors: Lilan Chiang, Shuchien Huang, Shuennnan Chiu, Shyjye Chen
    Abstract:

    Young in-fants with this condition may face a catastrophic clinicalcourse. We report an unusual case of Lung Agenesis withcomplexcardiacanomaliesand crossedectopicLungcompli-cating diagnosis in a 6-month-old child.CLINICAL SUMMARYAboywasbornuneventfullytoahealthymotheratagesta-tionalageof37weeks.Lowbirthweight(1700g)andmultiplecongenital anomalies were found at birth, including large an-terior fontanel and syndactyly over the second and third toes.Because tachypnea and heart murmur were heard 3 days afterbirth, serial workup was arranged. Chest radiography showedleft Lung haziness (Figure 1), and echocardiography showedtricuspid atresia, small ventricular septal defect, atrial septaldefect, large patent ductus arteriosus, and suspected left pul-monary artery and pulmonary vein Agenesis (Figure 2, A andB). Because ofthe suspected left Lung Agenesis, electrocardio-graphically gated chest computed tomography and 3-dimen-sional reconstruction were performed (Figure 2, C and D,andVideo1).Crossedectopicrightlowerlobeinthelefthemi-thoraxwasfoundincidentally,inadditiontoleftLungAgenesisandtricuspidatresia.Thearteriesandveinssupplyingnotonlythislobebut alsothe bronchusofthislobewerefromthe rightLung.Thepatient’srespiratorydistressandheartfailuresymp-toms improved after anticongestive medication, and he wasthen discharged at 2 weeks old.When the boy was 5 months old, mean pulmonary arterypressure was measured as 10 mm Hg by cardiac catheteriza-tion. We then performed a staged operation including bidi-rectional Glenn shunt, atrial septal defect enlargement, andpatent ductus arteriosus ligation for his tricuspid atresia.The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patientwas discharged 10 days after the operation and followedup at our cardiology clinics. Total cavopulmonary circula-tion will be arranged in the future.DISCUSSIONLung Agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly that may beassociated with multiple congenital anomalies.
