Summary

Congenital pulmonary malformation in children is a rare abnormality mostly diagnosed before birth during antenatal ultrasound examinations. These lesions may expand to form lung cysts in children, cause recurrent lung infections and has a potential for malignant change. Therefore, surgical removal in childhood is favoured as the treatment of choice.

The surgical correction may involve 'open' surgery or 'key hole' surgery. There is, however, a variation in surgical and anaesthetic techniques and timing of this surgery and subsequent complications reported post-surgery.

The purpose of this investigation is to review anaesthetic and surgical case notes and the subsequent well-being of all children who underwent lung surgery to remove above lung lesions over the last 10 years (2008-2017) at a regional centre. The aim is to look at the current status of these children in relation to their health, growth and development evaluated via a 20-minute structured telephone interview with prior consent.
