Congenital Bronchial Atresia

Imaging findings

A localized area of hyperinflation and a central mucus plug (often appearing as a branching opacity) without evidence of surrounding inflammation.

Key takeaways

Congenital bronchial atresia often presents as a "clean" lesion. If there is no associated scarring or consolidation, it is likely congenital despite potential history of aspiration risk.
