Congenital cystic adenomatous malformations (CCAMs) of the lung represent the most common lung defect diagnosed prenatally.

متن کاملCongenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung--case report.
Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung is a rare but potentially lethal variety of congenital pulmonary defect. This is a multicystic mass of dysplastic pulmonary tissue in which there is proliferation of bronchial structure at the expense of alveoli. We report a newborn infant with respiratory distress. The chest X-ray showed multicystic lesions with air-fluid level and shift o...
