A

3

30
Q

how many lobes on the left lung?

A

31
Q

why is it called pseudo glandular

A

all these cells are very metabloliclaly active

A

16-38 weeks

canicular, saccular and alveolar

35
Q

when would you see airway stenosis

A

early on in embryonic stage

36
Q

how does airway malacia happen

A

blood vssel that hasnt been formed properly

37
Q

does nronchogenic cyst happen earlier or later?

A

later

38
Q

how do you pick up presenting features?

A
fetal ultrasounds
newborn- trachypnea
resp distress
childhood- stridor
recurrent pneumonia
incidentsl finding
39
Q

what are symptoms of tracheo-bronchomalacia

A

Barking/seal-like cough
Early onset/recurrent “croup”
Breathless on exertion
Stridor/wheeze

40
Q

how do you manage tracheo-bronchomalacia

A

Airway clearance physiotherapy
Antibiotics
Avoid “asthma” treatment (especially bronchodilators)

41
Q

where does diaphragmatic hernia usually occur?

A

left more likely than right

42
Q

what is remodelling

A

alteration of structure following an external influence
