摘要

Pulmonary hypoplasia is a rare form of congenital disorder that leads to the underdevelopment of structural elements of the lungs. Although rare, it is associated with significant neonatal morbidity and mortality. Congenital lung abnormalities are frequently discovered in the early life following routine radiographic imaging and investigations. We report the case of a baby, at the age of one day. He was transferred to the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Tbilisi) with acute respiratory failure. This case report aims to aid future early detection to achieve better diagnostic outcomes.
