“…Type II CCAM is reported in 17 to 45% [5][6][7]. The only patients with type III CCAM was reported by Barreiro et al [5]. According to these limited number of patients, CCAM in adults is seen in patient aged between 20 to 80 years, with a slight male predominance, and mostly involves upper lobes.…”

“…Eighty to 85% of the cases are recognized in the neonatal period, however there are several reports in adults [8,9]. Besides there exist three studies as review of the literature consisting of 11 to 60 patients [5][6][7]. Overall, less than 70 cases of adult cases with CCAM have been reported.…”

“…Most cases (80 to 85%) are recognized in the first 2 years of life, and adult presentation of CCAM is uncommon [5,6]. CCAM in adults may be complicated by pulmonary bacterial infections and accompanied by adenocarcinoma of the lung [5][6][7]. Here we described an adult CCAM case accompanied by hamartoma and treated with lobectomy.…”

Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is mostly recognized in children and adult presentation is rare. Here, a 42-year-old male patient was presented. He had a previous history of pneumothorax, and radiologically there were multiple bullous lesions in the right upper lobe, as well as a nodular lesion of 2 cm. He underwent right upper lobectomy and middle lobe wedge resection which revealed CCAM type I and hamartoma of the lung. Less than 70 adult cases of CCAM have been reported in the literature. Lung cancer accompanying CCAM or malignant transformation in adult are rarely described. But to our knowledge, this is the first adult case of CCAM with hamartoma. CCAM should be considered in the differential diagnosis of multicycstic lesions in adults with a history of pneumothorax, and the surgical resection is the treatment of choice.
