An interesting finding in a congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation.
Jones KE., Teo Y., Lakhoo K.
Here we describe a case of antenatally diagnosed congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation. Due to increasing cyst size and fetal hydrops an antenatal drain was inserted. The lesion was excised surgically soon after birth due to significant respiratory distress. During histological assessment an area of squamous metaplasia was found within the cyst wall. This developed as a result of the drain placement. At 4-year follow-up the child remains well and has experienced no long-term respiratory sequalae.
