Journal Title: Indian Journal of Neonatal Medicine and Research - Year 2019, Vol 7, Issue 1

Abstract

Congenital Pulmonary Airway Malformation (CPAM) is a lower respiratory tract developmental malformation. It is due to overgrowth of terminal bronchiole causing a dysplastic lesion. Affected areas consist of mass of cysts lined by bronchial or cuboidal epithelium, which may contain cystic and adenomatoid portions with intervening normal lung tissue. We present a rare case of full term female baby with type 1 CPAM, antenatally diagnosed and successfully managed with left lung lower lobe complete lobectomy with maximum cyst size measuring about 5.3x2.3 cm. Histologically cyst resembling bronchioles.
