Pulmonary Sequestration and Congenital Pulmonary Airway Malformation (CPAM) 1 Presented as A Left Suprarenal Mass:ACase Report

Abstract

Introduction Pulmonary sequestration is a rare condition accounting for 0.1% to 6% of all congenital lung malformations. The correlation with Congenital Pulmonary Airway Malformation (CPAM) type 1 has not been adequately elucidated. Case presentation From routine fetal sonographic screening, a 20-day-old female baby's ultrasound revealed hydronephrosis with enlargement above the left kidney. Magnetic resonance imaging during a follow-up appointment uncovered a left suprarenal lesion of approximately 30 mm, which was not suspected to be adrenal neuroblastoma. After resection, histological analysis was consistent with pulmonary sequestration and confirmed the connection with CPAM type 1. Conclusion Surgery remains the only effective therapeutic choice for intra-abdominal pulmonary sequestration. The definitive diagnosis is confirmed through histological examination.
