Pulmonary congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation involving upper lobe with successful surgical management

A four-week-old infant born after a normal vaginal delivery presented with dyspnea of one month duration. His radiologic evaluation showed multiple cystic lesions involving the left upper lobe, although lower lobe is the usual site. It was removed after pnemonectomy and the final pathological diagnosis was congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (type II). The postoperative follow up showed excellent recovery and normal development of the child.
