Abstract
Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) of the lung is a congenital disorder characterized by multiple cysts resulting from adenomatous hyperplasia of the bronchial epithelium. In many cases, respiratory distress develops in the neonatal period, and approximately 80–85% of patients with CCAM are diagnosed before the age of two years old. CCAM diagnosed in adolescence is extremely rare. In this paper, we describe a case of CCAM of the right lung in a 15-year-old girl, which was discovered incidentally during a routine examination. Patient underwent a right upper partial lobectomy; histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis.
