LUNG PATHOLOGY
Congenital Anomalies Severe – fatal
during early period
Pulmonary Hypoplasia Defect on both lungs
↓ lung sized
- caused compressed the
lungs impede expansion
Intralobar – inside
lungs
- older children
- due to recurrent
infection
Atelectasis Incomplete expansion or
collapse of the lungs
PATHOGENESIS GROSS MICRO
Resorption atelectasis (+) obstruction of aiways - ipsilateral shifting of REVERSIBLE
excessive secretion ( mucus the mediastinum

Aspiration of foreign bodies
- impairment of blood flows
Compression Significant fluid volume - contralateral shift Reversible
