Le diagnostic anténatal d’atrésie bronchique est-il possible ?

Bronchial atresia is a rare congenital malformation of the lung. The main-stem segmental or lobar bronchus fails to construct normally, which can lead to accumulation of mucus within the distal bronchi or lung hyperinflation of the obstructed lobe. The prenatal diagnosis is rare and difficult. We report two cases of fetuses who presented pathological examination of the lung on the ultrasonography, at 22 weeks of gestation, suspect of prenatal bronchial atresia diagnosis. We analysed this malformation through a literature review in order to discuss differential diagnosis to be evoked, as well as appropriate perinatal management.
