Bilateral cystic pleuropulmonary blastoma in early infancy.
We report 2 cases of multifocal cystic (type 1) pleuropulmonary blastoma, diagnosed during the first 6 months of life. This rare entity must be recognized before evolution into the prognostically unfavorable type 2 or type 3 pleuropulmonary blastoma.
