Primary pulmonary tumors in small children have remained a challenge for pediatric surgeons. Pneumonectomy and radical lobectomy are limitedly indicated due to surgical difficulties and sequelae. Here, we present our experience with a 4-year-old patient who suffered from an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. A left lower sleeve lobectomy was performed, and the patient recovered significantly after surgery. At the last follow-up, the child was growing well without any sequel, which supports our hypothesis that in small children, sleeve resection is the preferred treatment for tumors on the main stem bronchus and presents an alternative to an otherwise unavoidable pneumonectomy.
