title: Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation type 0-a rare cause of neonatal death.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  We give the first account of failure of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy secondary to congenital cystic malformation of the lung (CCAM) type 0.
  
  
  METHODS
  Case report.
  
  
  METHODS
  Pediatric intensive care unit.
  
  
  METHODS
  A female neonate, appropriate for gestational age, with respiratory failure immediately after delivery.
  
  
  METHODS
  : Cardiopulmonary support with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
  
  
  RESULTS
  There was no improvement of pulmonary function, and the patient died. CCAM type 0 was diagnosed postmortem.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  CCAM type 0 should be considered as a rare differential diagnosis of irreversible lung pathologies leading to failure of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation therapy for neonatal respiratory failure.
