Life-Threatening Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation in the Premature Neonate

Abstract: Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation is a rare, but well-known disease. It can be managed conservatively in patients without symptoms or require surgical removal when symptomatic. The surgical option of choice is en bloc resection of the affected lesion. We report an experience of life-threatening congenital cystic adenoid malformation in a low-birth-weight (1,590 g) premature neonate who was successfully treated with a lobectomy of the lung.

“…2 In severe cases, patients develop respiratory failure even in the neonatal period, but others have a benign clinical course, with the manifestation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or recurrent pneumonia as an adult. [3][4][5]8 In our case, the lung malformation was responsible for the early acute respiratory failure and death.…”

“…1 Congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAMs) are a heterogeneous group of cystic and non-cystic lung lesions that result from early airway maldevelopment with the incidence ranging between 1:10,000 and 1:35,000 newborns. [2][3][4][5][6] This entity was first classified by Ch'in and Tang 7 in 1949 as congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM). Although originally described as "congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation," this entity now has the designation of "congenital pulmonary airway malformation" because the lesions described as "cystic" were present in only three of the five subtypes and "adenomatoid" in only one subtype.…”

“…Approximately 99% of CPAM can be diagnosed by fetal ultrasound in 18-20 weeks of gestation (8). Postnatal sensitivity of chest X-ray is 60% while the sensitivity of CT or MRI is 100% (8).…”

“…Approximately 99% of CPAM can be diagnosed by fetal ultrasound in 18-20 weeks of gestation (8). Postnatal sensitivity of chest X-ray is 60% while the sensitivity of CT or MRI is 100% (8). The lesion is usually unilateral (85%), with no difference in incidence of macrocystic or microcystic forms, but are also reported cases affecting bilateral or an entire lung (7,9).…”
