Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation (CCAM) with Two Cases Introduction
Authors
Abstract:
CCAM is a rare conolition in the neonatal Period. Two babies were admitted to Mofid hospital with cyanosis and respiratory distress. Pneumectomy was done for both of them for space occupaying lesion. Pathology examination of first case showed area of cuboidal epithelium lined tubes and spaces resembling fetal bronchioles, which are torn in folds. In second case, pathologic examination revealed cystically dilated irregular stellate shaped bronchiolar structures lined by cuboidal epithelium cells and surrounded by alveolar ductuls. These malformation were not associated with other abnormalities and were type I & III respectively depending on Stocker's classification.

Australasian Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine August 2009; 12 (3) Introduction Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is an uncommon fetal lung anomaly involving cystic changes to the terminal bronchioles. The condition requires close monitoring during the antenatal period with ultrasound in addition to input from the neonatal and paediatric surgical teams. This case study involves ...

Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung (CCAM) is a rare congenital lesion whose pathogenesis is not well defined. It is generally accepted that the various types of CCAMs originate at different levels of the tracheobronchial tree. To further define the pathogenesis of CCAM, we evaluated the cellular composition of different CCAM types by immunohistochemistry. Twenty-two CCAMs (1...

Prenatal identification of lung abnormalities has increased with prenatal surveillance. With the advent of improved antenatal imaging over the past ten years, the diagnosis, assessment and management of congenital cystic lung abnormalities have changed. These were once considered the exclusive domain of the surgeon, who had the authority to operate on all congenital cystic lung abnormalities re...

Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung is a rare lesion that typically manifests as severe progressive respiratory distress in the neonate secondary to expansion of the affected lung. We present a neonate in whom this condition was diagnosed and managed at the Aga Khan University Hospital. In presenting this patient, we hope to highlight the radiological aspects of this conditio...
