경과 관찰 중에 폐감염이 동반된 선천성 낭성 선종양 기형 1예 = A Case of the Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation Infected during Medical Observation

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

We reported a case of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM), diagnosed two years ago, has been infected during medical observation. She underwent VATS guided right lower lobectomy because of little response to the medical treatment. The prognosis turned out to be excellent and now she is under regular medical observation. Management of asymptomatic CCAM still has a likelihood of controversy but the early surgical resection is recommended on a basis of a variety of reference and literature to verify the diagnosis and lessen the risk of infection or malignant degeneration. Moreover the early surgical intervention has a good prognosis settling complications. Recently VATS lobectomy is considered as an alternative strategy for CCAM, and the early surgical resection may be an ideal approach for asymptomatic CCAM.
