Evaluation of Prenatal, Perinatal and Postnatal Outcomes and Imaging Modalities of Congenital Lung Malformations Diagnosed Prenatally: A Five-year Analysis in a Tertiary Center

Objective: To evaluate the antenatal, perinatal, and postnatal outcomes of congenital lung malformations (CLM) diagnosed prenatally. Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study evaluating prenatally diagnosed CLMs. Prenatal findings such as diagnosis weeks, additional anomalies, karyotype results, and pregnancy outcomes of the cases were collected from the hospital digital record system. The data of the postnatal long-term course and outcomes of the cases were obtained by contacting the parents by telephone. Results: Forty-seven CLM cases were included in the study. 12.8% of the cases had structural anomalies. Chromosome analysis was performed on 8 (17%) cases and all of them had a normal karyotype. Forty-four (93.7%) cases had a live birth. 19.1% of the cases gave birth prematurely. The newborns had low APGAR scores (
