Abstract
Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is a rare developmental entity. Symptomatic patients must
undergo thoracic surgery for lobectomy. Perioperative anesthetic management is challenging because it involves
thoracotomy in a young patient that may lead to hemodynamic compromise and inadequate ventilation. We present 3 cases of pediatric patients (6 months - 2 years old) with CCAM who underwent lobectomy.
