Tracheal agenesis, a rare respiratory malformation, requires immediate suspicion in newborns with respiratory distress and intubation difficulties. This study reports one case, adding to the 87 previously documented instances.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Science
  • Pediatrics
  • Respiratory Medicine

Background:

  • Tracheal agenesis is a rare congenital malformation affecting the respiratory tract.
  • It presents a significant diagnostic challenge in neonates.

Observation:

  • The condition should be suspected in newborns exhibiting respiratory distress, absence of crying, and intubation challenges.
  • Since 1900, 87 cases have been documented in medical literature.
  • This study details one case of tracheal agenesis identified during autopsy.

Findings:

  • The reported case represents a rare occurrence of tracheal agenesis.
  • Autopsy analysis confirmed the diagnosis in the neonatal case.

Implications:
