Although congenital lobar emphysema is one of the </p> <p>rare pathologies among the causes of acute respiratory failure </p> <p>in childhood, it is an anomaly that must be kept in mind because </p> <p>of the need for emergency lobectomy. </p>}, number={31}, publisher={Hatay Mustafa Kemal Üniversitesi}
