La atresia bronquial congénita es una malformación rara y de difícil diagnóstico. La eficacia de la tomografía axial computarizada torácica como prueba diagnóstica evita, en casi todos los casos, exploraciones más agresivas. Presentamos un caso de atresia bronquial congénita, diagnosticado por tomografía axial computarizada torácica y revisamos su papel en el diagnóstico.

Congenital bronchial atresia is a rare malformation of difficult diagnosis. The yield of thoracic computed tomography as a diagnostic test prevents more invasive studies in nearly all cases. We report a patient with congenital bronchial atresia who was diagnosed by thoracic computed tomography and we review the role of this techniqe in the diagnosis.
