- Abstract
The objective of this integrative literature review is to discuss the perspectives regarding the early surgical approach of asymptomatic children with congenital pulmonary airway malformation. The review was conducted by performing electronic searches from May to July 2023, in the PUBMED database - National Library of Medicine. Studies published from January 2013 to January 2023, clinical trials, retrospective studies, case studies, series and cases and mixed studies available in English were included. Elementary information was collected from the articles selected after the filters, such as study design (main methodological aspects), key findings and conclusion (based on the problem question that guided this study). Initially, 125 articles were identified from the search in the selected database. After the analysis regarding the application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 9 manuscripts remained, all of them of the retrospective type. In conclusion, although there is currently a divergence of opinions regarding the performance of an early surgical procedure in children diagnosed with asymptomatic congenital pulmonary airways malformation, current studies point to the procedure as they consider several factors, including patient safety.
