| Summary: | Congenital Bronchopulmonary Foregut Malformations (CBPFMs) are a wide spectrum of congenital malformations that arise due to a communication between the respiratory and alimentary tracts. Considering the rarity of the disease, there is a wide range of presentations, investigations and management options described in literature. We describe one such case that was managed by 3D thoracoscopic pneumonectomy and also discuss in detail our review of literature of almost 60 years about this condition. Keywords: Congenital bronchopulmonary foregut malformation, CBPFM, Oesophageal lung, 3D thoracoscopy, Pneumonectomy |
