The article presents a case of successful surgical treatment of a 3-month-old child with a rare pathology – tuberculosis lesion of the intrathoracic lymph nodes causing compression of the left main bronchus. The child was admitted with signs of respiratory failure. An X-ray examination revealed signs of emphysema of the left lung. According to the data of contrast CT, a volumetric hypodensive formation was detected, which slightly accumulated contrast, with a capsule up to 0,3 cm thick, located in the area of the tracheal bifurcation, causing compression of the left main bronchus, esophagus, pulmonary bifurcation. During tracheobronchoscopy, a narrowing of the main bronchus to 1 mm was found immediately after bifurcation of the trachea. During the operation, a formation with a diameter of up to 2 cm was removed. According to the results of a morphological study, the formation is regarded as tuberculous granulomatous inflammation of the lymph node. The rarity of the pathology causes difficulties in diagnosis and treatment.

Klinikinis atvejis Didelė intervencijos rizika ir sąlyginai stabili ligonio būklė nutolino operaciją. Paskutinio hospitalizavimo metu buvo įtarta aneurizmos disekacija ir spindžio trombozė. Dėl sparčiai blogėjančios būklės ligonis buvo operuojamas skubos tvarka. Operuojant rasta pilna trombų disekuojanti degeneravusi nusileidžiančiosios aortos aneurizma ir jos fistulė į kairįjį pagrindinį bronchą. Pašalinus aneurizmos maišą, nusileidžiančioji aorta buvo pakeista kraujagysliniu protezu, pašalintas ir nefunkcionavęs kairysis plautis. Pooperacinį laikotarpį sunkino tebesitęsiantis difuzinis kraujavimas. Nepaisant intensyvaus gydymo, ligonio būklė vis blogėjo ir jis mirė antrą parą po operacijos nuo dauginio organų nepakankamumo. Patologiniu pašalintojo plaučio tyrimu nustatyti seni organizuoti trombai ir nauji krešuliai bronchuose, taip pat cholesterolio kristalai parenchimoje, rodantys kraujavimo epizodus ir lėtinę embolizaciją aterominėmis plokštelėmis pro aneurizmos ir broncho fistulę. Išvada Ligonius, kuriems yra torakoabdominalinė aortos aneurizma, reikia stebėti labai aktyviai ir trumpai, o indikacijos chirurginiam gydymui turi būti nustatomos anksčiau ir ryžtingiau.

Case report The high risk associated with the aneurysm repair and the conditionally stable patient’s state delayed the elective operative treatment. At a recent admission, aneurysm dissection with lumen thrombosis was suspected. The quickly deteriorating patient’s condition determined urgent surgical intervention. A dissecting degenerative descending aortic aneurysm packed with a large amount of thrombi and fistulation into the left main bronchus was found during the procedure. Following debridiment the descending aorta was replaced with a prosthetic graft, and the non-functioning left lung was extirpated. Persistent diffuse bleeding complicated the early postoperative course. Despite the aggressive medical therapy, the patient’s condition deteriorated progressively and he died on the second postoperative day due to multisystemic organ failure. Pathological investigation of the resected left lung showed chronic organized thrombi and fresh clots within the bronchi with cholesterol crystals in the parenchyma, evidencing bleeding episodes with chronic embolisation with atheromatous plaques through the aneurysm-bronchial fistula. Conclusion The follow-up of patients with thoracoabdominal aneurysm should be very active and short, and indications for surgical repair should be determined earlier and more decisively.
