Introduction
Mostly congenital
Consequence of disordered organogenesis
May be diagnosed before birth or early in
postnatal life, so corrective surgery may be
applied

Tracheobronchial anomalies
• Lower respiratory tract shares its embryological
origin with primitive foregut, arising from its ventral
surface in 4th wk of IUL as laryngotracheal bud or
respiratory primordial pouch
• Subsequent development of tracheobronchial tree
and oesophagus proceeds concurrently
• Congenital abnormality of one affects the other
• Developmental errors cannot arise after 16th wk of
IUL , since by this time its formation would have
been complete
![Page 9: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Tracheal agenesis/ aplasia
• Absence of growth in trachea or in part of it
• Male: female :: 2:1
• 3 anatomical patterns
• Type 1- agenesis of proximal trachea. Distal trachea
is present, connected to oesophagus by fistulous
communication . 20 % cases
• Type 2 – main bronchi join in midline , communicate
with oesophagus by single fistula, 60% cases .most
common
• Type 3 – left and right main bronchi join oesophagus
20% cases

Tracheal agenesis/ aplasia
• Infant may survive for a period
• Early diagnosis may allow temporary
measures to sustain respiration , later
reconstructive surgery
![Page 12: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Tracheo – oesophageal fistula
• H type tracheo –oesophageal fistula, both
trachea and oesophagus remain patent
• Maybe undetected until adult life
• Aspiration of oesophageal content into
airway may cause choking, with cough and
cyanotic episodes after feeding
• Passage of air through fistula into
oesophagus may cause abdominal distention
• Recurrent pneumonia is common

Tracheal stenosis
• Can be diffuse 30%, segmental 50%, or
funnel like 20%
• Associated with tracheo – oesophageal
fistulae, and accesory bronchi arising
from trachea
• Presents in infancy with stridor,
respiratory insufficiency
• Surgical treatment, plastic tracheal
reconstruction

Tracheal narrowing due to extrinsic
pressure
• Results from close proximity of unusually
large or abnormally placed vessels, that have
arisen as faulty devpt. of primitive system of
branchial arches
• Double aortic arch 47%, right aortic arch with
left ligamentum arteriosum 20%, retro
oesophageal right subclavian artery 14%,
anomalous innominate artery 11%,
anomalous left carotid artery 4%,
retrotracheal or sling left pulmonary artery
3%, right aortic arch with aberrant left
subclavian artery 1%

Double aortic arch
![Page 20: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Tracheomalacia
• Excessive weakness and collapsibility
of tracheal walls as a result of
abnormally soft or pliable cartilages
• Result of deficiency cartilge in a short
segment of trachea
• Result of prolonged ET intubation
• Rare systemic disorder like relapsing
poluchondritis
• Severe cases surgical intervention and
tracheal splinting procedures
![Page 22: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Tracheobronchomegaly
• Charecterised by unusual widening of
trachea and main bronchi
• Inherited as an autosomal recessive
disorder in assoctn with EDS
• There is atrophic defect of the
connective tissue of trachea and main
bronchi
• Confirmed by ct
• c/f = wheezing dyspnoea, resp distress
during feeding, rec lrti, stridor, cyanosis
and apnoeic episode
![Page 24: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Tracheobronchomegaly
![Page 25: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Abnormal pattern of bronchial
branching
Most common anomaly is a
supernumerary rt upper lobe bronchus
May arise from trachea(0.9%) or rt main
bronchus(0.4%)
Most common segmental anomaly is a
double stem apical lower lobe
segmental bronchus (7%)- r >>lt
![Page 26: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Supernumerary bronchus
![Page 27: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Bronchial isomerism – rare devpmt
anomaly in which normal pattern of
bronchial branching , in either rt or left
lung is mirrored in the contralateral lung
resulting in so called b/l rt or lt lung
![Page 28: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
![Page 29: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Bronchial atresia
• Apicoposterior segment of lt upper lobe gets sealed from the
proximal airways to which it may remain attached by a thin
fibrous strand, so secretions get accumulated in the sealed
portion, which gets distended to form cystic space or mucocoel.
• Ventilation maintained by alveolar pores of kohn
• Pts majority asyptomatic.
Xray= mucocoel appears as a coin lesion and the part of lung
distal to it appears hypertransluscent ( air trapping)
Ct is confirmatory
Risk of infn is low
Surgical excision
![Page 30: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Mucocoel, ( coin
lesion)
![Page 31: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Bronchogenic cyst
• Result of abnormal budding of tracheo
bronchial tree during the course of
devpt. b/w 26 th day and 16 th wk of
IUL.
• So the tracheal and bronchial bud gets
separated from its parent, thereafter
developing into a cystic structure.
• M>>f
![Page 32: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
• Classified as central and periphery
• Central >peripheral
• Cysts may be single , multiple, or b/l lungs
• Ectopic site = pericardium, diaphragm, vertebral
column
• Infected cyst may have fluid level
• c/f = presure effect on trachea cause dyspnoea ,
cough and stridor, on oesophagus dysphagia
• Repeated resp. Tract infection
• Complication – haemoptysis, pneumothorax
![Page 33: Developmental disorders of lungs](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032421/55a713d11a28ab40358b462f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
• Xray and ct diagnostic
• Xray = well circumscribed , rounded
homogenous opacity , close to major
airway or in the periphery
• Surgical excision of the cyst
