Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) Primary bilateral pulmonary hypoplasia is defined as quantitative and/or qualitative underdevelopment of bronchial and pulmonary tissue unrelated to an underlying disorder (Langer and Kaufmann, 1986).
Diagnosis OMIM Langer and Kaufmann (1986) stated that the radiologic diagnosis of primary pulmonary hypoplasia is possible if the following findings are seen: clear, small lungs in the early postpartum period, bilaterally elevated diaphragms, early development of pneumothoraces, after mechanical ...
Clinical Description OMIM Boylan et al. (1977) reported the first seemingly familial instance of bilateral pulmonary hypoplasia. Male and female infants who died shortly after birth were described. Both infants had associated malformations, including prominent epicanthic folds, mild micrognathia, and low ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In a deceased child with severe lethal primary pulmonary hypoplasia and unilateral diaphragmatic defect (see, e.g., 142340 and 610187), Ackerman et al. (2005) identified a de novo heterozygous mutation in the ZFPM2 gene (603693.0003) on chromosome 8q23. Postmortem ...
