Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation and bronchogenic cyst in a 4-month-old infant.
Congenital cystic disease of the lung and mediastinum encompasses a continuum of entities, and a histological overlap of many of these anomalies is acknowledged. Moreover, it is possible for different lesions to coexist in the same patient. Careful evaluation prior to surgical resection will alert the surgeon to the possible presence of multiple lesions in one patient.
