| Summary: | Coexisting congenital cystic adenomatous malformation of the lungs and severe pectus excavatum (PE) is an uncommon presentation that poses significant management challenges. Conventionally managed in a staged manner, there are increasing reports of superior outcomes with single-staged concurrent repair with minimally invasive techniques (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery [VATS] and minimally invasive repair of PE [MIRPE]). The outcome of a single-stage open repair for both anomalies has not been previously reported to the best of our search. We report the successful single-stage management of a 9-month-old infant with both anomalies who had an open lobectomy and modified Ravitch procedure. We aim to report the feasibility and safety of a single-stage concurrent repair of both conditions using open techniques, as VATS and MIRPE are not readily available in our environment. |
