Learning Points:
• Pneumatoceles are a known source of increased neonatal mortality.
• Options for management of pneumatoceles include modifying patient position, unilateral lung ventilation, percutaneous air drainage, and surgical intervention, including lobectomy or pneumonectomy.
• Unstable patients with a known pneumatocele may benefit from placement of a Fogarty catheter to selectively isolate affected portions of their lung; we describe multiple techniques to assist in this placement.
