ABSTRACT Human lung growth starts as a primitive lung bud in early embryonic life and its growth is determined by various factors which occur during development. Pressure effects during intrauterine life from neighboring organs can impede the growth and lead to a hypoplastic lung. These could be due to associated congenital abnormalities of diaphragm, kidney, heart, GIT, etc. Dilated stomach is a rare association with a hypoplastic lung. We describe a case of congenital unilateral pulmonary hypoplasia in association with dilated stomach in a 25-year-old man who presented with exacerbation of bronchial asthma.

ABSTRACTThe co-occurrence of Guillain–Barre syndrome (GBS) and tuberculosis is rare. Even in countries like India, where tuberculosis is common, there is only one case report of co-occurrence of GBS with tuberculosis. We report a case of GBS in association with sputum-positive pulmonary tuberculosis. The earliest treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin in acute motor axonal neuropathy variant of GBS would show good early recovery despite associated pulmonary tuberculosis.
