  • Title: Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung associated with esophageal atresia and tracheoesophageal fistula.
    Author: De Felice C, Di Maggio G, Messina M, Toti P, Bagnoli F, Bracci R, Tota G.
    Journal: Pediatr Surg Int; 1999; 15(3-4):260-3. PubMed ID: 10370039.
    Abstract:
    Bronchopulmonary malformations associated with esophageal atresia (EA) and tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) are extremely rare. The authors describe a case of type II congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) of the right lower lobe associated with EA and TEF (Vogt-Gross type C) in a full-term female infant. The CCAM presented as an incidental radiologic finding, and a contralateral tension pneumothorax developed shortly after surgical repair of the EA. Early recognition of this rare association is essential for correct operative management.
