Abstract EN
Congenital lobar emphysema (CLE) is a rare lung congenital malformation.
Differential diagnosis of the disease remains challenging in an infant with acute respiratory distress.
We report a case of a 3-week-old female infant with a weight of 2.1 kg who presented respiratory distress related to CLE.
Left upper lobectomy was performed and she had an uneventful recovery.
