Intradiaphragmatic hybrid lesion in an infant: case report

J Pediatr Surg. 2012 Aug;47(8):e25-8. doi: 10.1016/j.jpedsurg.2012.04.010.

Abstract

Hybrid lesions have elements of both congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation and bronchopulmonary sequestration. We report an unusual case of an infant treated for an intradiaphragmatic hybrid lesion. Although computed tomography remains the criterion standard imaging examination for planning the operation, the exact localization of such lesions may be discovered only at surgical exploration.
