A rare neonatal pulmonary blastoma was successfully removed, with the patient remaining disease-free for 8 years. This case highlights a rare long-term survival for this pediatric lung neoplasm.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Oncology
  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Diagnostic Imaging

Background:

  • Pulmonary blastoma (PB) is a rare primary lung neoplasm, more common in adults.
  • Neonatal cases of PB are exceptionally rare, with limited reported instances.
  • Early detection and surgical intervention are crucial for managing thoracic masses in neonates.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a rare case of neonatal pulmonary blastoma.
  • To discuss the diagnostic and management approach for this rare pediatric lung tumor.
  • To highlight the potential for long-term survival following surgical resection.

Main Methods:

  • Prenatal ultrasound identified a thoracic mass at 30 weeks gestation.
  • Postnatal diagnosis confirmed via chest radiograph, ultrasound, and computed tomography.

  • Surgical excision of the left lower lobe mass followed by pathological examination.

    • Main Results:

    • A well-delineated, solid-cystic tumor was diagnosed as pulmonary blastoma.
    • The patient underwent successful surgical resection.
    • The patient remains alive and disease-free 8 years post-operation.

    Conclusions:

    • Neonatal pulmonary blastoma, though rare, can be successfully treated with surgical excision.
    • This case represents one of the few reported long-term survivors of neonatal PB.
    • Aggressive surgical management offers a favorable prognosis for selected cases of pediatric lung neoplasms.
