It is characterized by the focal stenosis of a proximal segmental bronchus associated with peripheral mucus impaction and hyperinflation of the obstructed lung segment. Most cases are identified during neonatal period or childhood. When diagnosed in adults, BA may present with recurrent infections, pneumothorax and destruction of affected parenchyma. Thoracoscopic approach to BA has proved challenging in adult patients because of repeated infections and subsequently, its inflammatory status. Herein we present a case of a 26-year-old female with left side recurrent pneumonia and pneumothorax past history. A chest computed tomography revealed a complex congenital bronchial atresia involving the left upper lobe and basal segments, associated to vascular anomalies. She underwent a successful uniportal VATS left upper lobectomy and resection of basal segments. Uniportal VATS approach is an effective and safe treatment for the management of complex congenital lung malformation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjab069","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,8]],"date-time":"2021-02-08T20:11:05Z","timestamp":1612815065000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Complex congenital lung malformation resection by uniportal VATS\u2014case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2021","author":[{"given":"Arpad","family":"Hasenauer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Service of Thoracic Surgery, University Hospital of Lausanne (CHUV), Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"C\u00e9line","family":"Forster","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Service of Thoracic Surgery, University Hospital of Lausanne (CHUV), Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amaya","family":"Ojanguren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Service of Thoracic Surgery, University Hospital of Lausanne (CHUV), Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8705-4279","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Michel","family":"Gonzalez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Service of Thoracic Surgery, University Hospital of Lausanne (CHUV), Lausanne, Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"207","DOI":"10.7150\/ijms.3690","article-title":"Congenital bronchial atresia: diagnosis and treatment","volume":"9","author":"Wang","year":"2012","journal-title":"Int J Med Sci"},{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref2","first-page":"28","article-title":"The prevalence of congenital bronchial atresia in males","volume":"61","author":"Psathakis","year":"2004","journal-title":"Monaldi Arch Chest Dis"},{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"174","DOI":"10.21037\/jovs.2017.10.15","article-title":"Congenital bronchial atresia in adults: thoracoscopic resection","volume":"3","author":"Traibi","year":"2017","journal-title":"J Vis Surg"},{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e17","DOI":"10.1148\/rg.e17","article-title":"Congenital anomalies of the tracheobronchial tree, lung, and mediastinum: embryology, radiology, and pathology","volume":"24","author":"Berrocal","year":"2004","journal-title":"Radiographics"},{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"110","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pneumo.2012.01.008","article-title":"Tracheobronchial and pulmonary parenchymatous congenital abnormalities requiring surgical treatment in adults","volume":"68","author":"Mordant","year":"2012","journal-title":"Rev Pneumol Clin"},{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref6","first-page":"486","article-title":"Thoracoscopic anatomical resection of congenital lung malformations in adults","volume":"7","author":"Macias","year":"2015","journal-title":"J Thorac Dis"},{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1933","DOI":"10.1016\/j.athoracsur.2014.01.053","article-title":"Surgical management of congenital pulmonary malformations after the first decade of life","volume":"97","author":"Wang","year":"2014","journal-title":"Ann Thorac Surg"},{"key":"2021070901524645100_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"485","DOI":"10.1177\/0218492318780805","article-title":"Surgery for congenital bronchial atresia","volume":"26","author":"Higuchi","year":"2018","journal-title":"Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann"}],"container-title":["Journal of Surgical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2021\/4\/rjab069\/37039995\/rjab069.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"http:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2021\/4\/rjab069\/37039995\/rjab069.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,9]],"date-time":"2021-07-09T07:52:58Z","timestamp":1625817178000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article\/doi\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjab069\/6224422"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,1]]},"references-count":8,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjab069","relation":{},"ISSN":["2042-8812"],"issn-type":[{"type":"electronic","value":"2042-8812"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[2021,4]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,1]]},"article-number":"rjab069"}}
