Abstract
At first, congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) of the lung can only be a clinical suspicion to be checked out in any differential diagnosis concerned with lung cysts. Only precise histomorphological examination renders diagnosis possible. In 1949, Ch’in and Tang described such a lung malformation, which was associated with generalized anasarca (skin Oedeman) and hydramnion.
