Résumé
Cystic adenomatoid malformation (CAM) is a congenital lung malformation characterized by adenomatoid proliferation of alveoli and terminal bronchioli. It is usually diagnosed perinatally, but some silent cases are discovered during childhood or adulthood. We present the case of a 9-year-old girl who presented with chest pain. Chest X-ray showed a cystic image in the upper lobe of the left lung, which was confirmed by computed tomography and magnetic resonance angiography. Lobectomy of the affected segment was performed and histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of CAM type I
