what is plerual effusion?

A

pathological accumalaton of fluid in the pleural space

anechoic space outlining the lungs

165
Q

what is pleural effusion a manifestation of?

A

fetal hydrops
ascities
edema (skin thickening)

166
Q

what may a large pleural effusion cause?

A

displace or compress the heart and great vessels and is associated with a high potential morbidity and mortality rate

167
Q

what is the managment of pleural effusion?

A

aggressively by ultrasound thoraco-amniotic shunt (a drainage tube with one end in the pleural space and the other in the amniotic fluid)

168
Q

what is Congenital Cystic Adenomoid Malformation (CCAM)?

A

It is a rare lesion in which normal lung tissue is replaced by cysts of varying sizes.

169
Q

what is CCAM describes as?

A

a focal dysplasia of the lungs

170
Q

what are the most common congenital lung lesions?

A

CCAM

171
Q

what does CCAM result from?

A

pulmonary insult during embryonic development of the bronchial tree before the 7th week of gestation

172
Q

CCAM type 1

A
  • mainly cystic
  • single or multiple cysts (2-10 cm)
  • cystic mass appearance
173
Q

CCAM type 2

A
  • mainly solid lesion with multiple solid cysts <2 cm

- hyperechoic mass with detectable cysts appearance

174
Q

CCAM type 3

A
  • mainly solid lesion with tiny cysts <0.5cm

- hyperechoic mass without detectable cysts appearance

175
Q

pathological features of CCAM?

A
  • unilateral

- mostly involves only part of a lung with lower lobe being most common

176
Q

what are some complications with CCAM?

A
  • pulmonary hypoplasia
  • heart compression
  • fetal hydrops
  • polyhydramnios
177
Q

what is Bronchopulmonary Sequestration?

A

the presence of non-functioning pulmonary tissue that usually does not have communication with the bronchial tree

178
Q

where does Bronchopulmonary Sequestration recieve its blood supply?

A

blood supply from an anomalous artery from the aorta rather than a pulmonary artery branch

179
Q

what are the 2 main types of Bronchopulmonary Sequestration?

A

intralobular sequestration

extralobar sequestration

180
Q

Intralobar sequestration

A

the abnormal tissue lies within the normal lung, usually in a posterior segment of a lower lobe

181
Q

Extralobar sequestration

A

The abnormal tissue is anatomically separated from the normal lung. The most common location is the left chest, in particular the basal region (near the diaphragm)

182
Q

sonographic findings of extralobar pulmonary sequestraton?

A

appears as a homogenous echogenic chest mass with or without a cardiac shift
-intra prenatal diagnosis is rare

183
Q

what is the differential diagnosis of Bronchopulmonary Sequestration?

A

Type 3 CCAM and CDH

184
Q

how to exclude CDH when it may be Bronchopulmonary Sequestration?

A

If the abdominal viscera appear normal (stomach, liver, and bowel identified in their normal locations), then CDH can be excluded.

185
Q

what are bronchogenic cysts?

A

rare anomalies that result from abnormal buddding of branching of the tracheobronchial tree

186
Q

what does bronchogenic cysts look like on ultrasound?

A
  • anechoic

- unilocular intrathoracic cyst with layering echogenic material

187
Q

what are the main differential diagnosis for bronchogenic cyst?

A

CCAM

distal lung accumulating fluid

188
Q

what is the managment of bronchogenic cyst?

A
  • surgical resection for bronchogenic cysts

- risk of hemorrhage, infection, or malignancy

189
Q

what is a Tracheosophageal Fistula?

A

abnormal connection between the esophagus and trachea

190
Q

is Tracheosophageal Fistula common?

A

It is a common congenital abnormality.

191
Q

how does Tracheosophageal Fistula occur?

A

It is due to failed fusion of the tracheosophageal ridges during the third week of embryological development.
