Congenital Lobar Emphysema: Diagnosis

 
Medical Encyclopedia: Congenital Lobar Emphysema: Diagnosis

Congenital lobar emphysema is usually identified within the first two weeks of the infant's life. It is diagnosed by respiratory symptoms and a chest x ray, which shows the over-inflation of the affected lobe and may show a blocked air passage.
