CPAM | congenital pulmonary airway malformation

09 May 2022

Description

Congenital pulmonary airway malformations, also known as CPAM, are masses of abnormal lung tissue that form antenatally. They were until recently known as CCAMs, or congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation. Affected patients may present with respiratory distress in the newborn period or may remain asymptomatic until later in life. Many cases are now detected by routine prenatal ultrasound examination. Surgical resection is the definitive treatment.   Links and resources: Follow us on Instagram @yourekiddingrightdoctors Our email is [email protected] Make sure you hit SUBSCRIBE/FOLLOW so you don't miss any episodes and RATE to help other people find us!
