RÉSUMÉ
L'emphysème lobaire gauche (ELG) congénital est rare, et le segmentaire est une variante topographique de l’ELG encore plus rare, pouvant évoluer vers une détresse respiratoire. Le diagnostic repose sur la radiographie et le scanner thoracique qui permettent d’évaluer la compression, de préciser le diagnostic, de planifier le geste chirurgical et la voie d’abord. Nous rapportons le premier opéré au CHU Pr BSS de Kati. Il s’agissait d’un nourrisson deux mois qui a bénéficié d’une segmentectomie apicale. Les suites opératoires ont été simples avec une bonne évolution radio-clinique deux mois après la chirurgie.
ABSTRACT
Congenital left lobar emphysema (LLE) is rare while segmental emphysema is an even rarer topographic variant of LLE, which can progress to respiratory distress. chest X-ray and thoracic CT scan enable diagnosis permit to evaluate compression, identify associated lesions, plan the surgical procedure. We report the first case of LLE that was operated at the . This was a two-month infant who benefited of apical segmentectomy. The post operative course was uneventful and the clinical and radiological workup was normal two months after surgery.
