A 66-year-old woman presented with chronic cough with sputum and recurrent attacks of pneumonia. She was treated with antibiotics. Chest CT-scan showed a left lobe atelectasis and multiple foci of bronchiectasis. Bronchoscopy revealed a patent left lower lobe bronchus. In conclusions, middle lobe syndrome can rarely affect left lower lobe. It should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of recurrent pneumonia.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessMiddle lobe syndromepulmonary atelectasisbronchiectasisMiddle lobe syndrome in left lower lobeSíndrome del lóbulo medio en el lóbulo pulmonar izquierdo inferiorArticle601475210.22209/IC.v60n1a05Q4WOS:0005371168000062-s2.0-85104030756Q4
