Introduction: Congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAM), intra- and extralobar bronchopulmonary sequestrations (iBPS/eBPS), CPAM-BPS hybrid lesions (HL), congenital lobar emphysema (CLE), bronchial atresia (BA), and foregut duplication cysts (FDC), collectively referred to as congenital thoracic lesions (CTL), are mostly solitary. Patients with multiple CTL are rare, and reports on such cases are scarce. To address this dearth, we analyzed a large multifocal CTL patient cohort.

- - The study investigates the link between long-term psychological issues, specifically anxiety and depression, and the amount of sedation patients received during venovenous extracorporeal life support (VV-ECLS) for acute respiratory failure.
- - Conducted in a U.S. academic medical center, researchers analyzed data from 42 patients who underwent VV-ECLS between 2015 and 2017, finding that about 52% of them experienced psychiatric morbidity at follow-up.
- - The results indicated that patients with significant psychiatric issues received more days of intravenous sedation (median of 15 days) compared to those without psychiatric issues (median of 10 days), suggesting a noteworthy relationship between prolonged sedation and long-term psychological effects.
