Invasive procedures, including bronchoscopy and angiography, are often necessary for a definitive diagnosis. We report a 17-year-old man admitted because of cystic bronchiectasis complicated by lung abscess. Chest roentgenography showed the typical findings of Swyer-James syndrome. Noninvasive magnetic resonance angiography was used to confirm hypoplasia of the right pulmonary artery. The patient received antibiotic therapy, underwent a right lower lobectomy for the lung abscess, and recovered.[SDGs]SDG3amikacin; ceftazidime; penicillin G; adolescent; antibiotic therapy; article; bronchiectasis; bronchiolitis; case report; clinical feature; human; hypertranslucent lung; lobectomy; lower respiratory tract infection; lung abscess; magnetic resonance angiography; male; pulmonary artery disease; Adolescent; Humans; Lung Abscess; Lung, Hyperlucent; MaleSwyer-James syndrome complicated by lung abscessjournal article108209602-s2.0-0034106667
