Abstract

Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation (CCAM) is a rare development abnormality of the lung occurring in 1- 4 / 100,000 live birth.it is often confused with pneumatocoele or pneumothorax which are common in developing countries. We report here a case of 5 months old baby with features of respiratory distress since birth and CECT  thorax suggestive of large cystic lesion of left lung i.e., CCAM.

Keywords - CCAM , rare, Cystic lesion , Respiratory distress.
