Pulmonary artery sling with bronchial bridge malformation in children: a report of 3 cases / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Pulmonary artery sling (PAS) with bronchial bridge malformation is a very rare developmental malformation of vascular and trachea. In the past 2 years, we treated 3 children with pulmonary artery sling complicated with bronchial bridge, all of whom were clinically characterized by recurrent cough, asthma and dyspnea, which were confirmed by cardiac color ultrasound and chest CT three-dimensional reconstruction. All of the 3 children underwent surgical treatment, and no recurrent wheezing or respiratory tract infection occurred after surgery.
