“…On the other hand, lesions that result in fetal hydrops are associated with a high incidence of intrauterine demise or neonatal morbidity/mortality and are therefore a definitive indication for fetal therapy [8]. Several fetal therapeutic interventions have been proposed over the years to treat such lesions, some of which have been tabulated below (Table 1) [2,3,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

“…The major advantage with betamethasone treatment is that it is non-invasive. However most fetuses are likely to require post-natal surgery because of a high chance of reappearance of hydrops [16]. Also, there could be long term implications due to multiple dose administration of steroids [21].…”

“…The choice of procedure in an individual case would depend on the accessibility and size of lesion and the expertise of the surgeon [2][3][4][5][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Few key elements of each have been tabulated below that may help the clinician in decision making (Table 2).…”

The two most common fetal lung lesions include Bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS) and Congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM).Their co-existence is known as a hybrid lesion. Fetal hydrops in such cases is associated with very high morbidity and mortality. Several fetal interventions have been recommended over the past years to treat the same, with varying success rates. We describe a case of a hybrid CPAM complicated by hydrops which was successfully treated by interstitial laser coagulation of the systemic feeder artery. We also review current literature on the available interventions and conclude that interstitial laser has emerged as the preferred modality of treatment over the years.

“…Then Koksal et al [29] rstlyreported a child with an extralobar pulmonary sequestrations (ELPS)located in the upper posterior mediastinum associated with theazygos lobe. ELPS is a rare congenital anomaly that commonly occurson the left side [30][31][32]. In their case, ELPS tissue was receivingblood supply from the ascending aorta and right brachiocephalicartery, and draining to the superior vena cava by an accompanyingvein [29].…”

Background Primary disease in thorax associated with an azygos lobe is extremely rare. It is usually identified incidentally on chest X-ray or CT during health checkups with an incidence of up to 0.2%. This is the first study involving 46 of patients found with azygos lobe in surgery of English literature from January 1931 to October 2018. Methods PubMed, EMBASE and the Web of Science databases were searched for full-text literatures met out inclusion criteria. We summarized the clinical data, radiological manifestation, accompanying disease and treatment strategy of all patients. Results 18 eligible studies involving 46 patients were selected for this research. The mean age was 36.5 years old. There were 26 male patients and 20 female patients and the male to female ratio nearly to 1.3:1. There were many different primary diseases with azygos lobe including lung cancer (n = 8), spontaneous pneumothorax (n = 5), esophageal cancer (n = 1), pulmonary sequestration (n = 1), esophageal atresia (n = 2), hyperhidrosis (n = 29). The azygos lobe (azygos lobe in Figs. 1 and 2) is an uncommon anomaly that is found in 1% of anatomic specimens, on about 0.4% of chest radiographs and 1.2% of high resolution CT. The azygos lobe is a developmental anomaly but not a true accessory lobe. Azygos lobe of all patients was diagnosed during the operation. Conclusions Azygos lobe occurs in 0.2% of the population and can make clinical diagnosis difficult. The detection of this anomaly and clarification of its precise anatomical features are important to alert the surgeon to potential problems during surgery.
