A congenital cystic adenoid malformation of the lung(CCAM) is characterized by an anomalous fetal development of the terminal respiratory structures, resulting in the adenomatoid proliferation of the bronchiolar elements and cystic formation. CCAM has been detected on the fetus, premature babies and stillborn as well as infants and children. An adult presentation of CCAM is extremely rare. When cystic lesions occur with a repeated infection, an evaluation of the cystic lesions requires a differential diagnosis of CCAM, sequestration, a lung abscess, a pneumatocele and a bronchogenic cyst. The definite treatment of CCAM is the surgical removal of the involved lobe. We report a case of a CCAM in a 24-year-old female with a brief review of the relevant literature.

A lung cyst is an air-filled lucent structure surrounded by a thin wall. The presence of multiple intrapulmonary cysts is defined as cystic lung disease. Although cystic lung disease is rare, incidental detection has increased significantly in recent years by screening using computed tomography. There are many conditions that can mimic lung cysts and cause cystic lung disease. Clinical, radiographic, and histologic findings are all necessary for a proper diagnosis, and multidisciplinary approaches are frequently required. The aim of this report is to review the causes and characteristics of cystic lung disease to better understand and improve treatment.

We present a case of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) in a 25-year-old male who was presented with chronic cough. Chest radiography revealed an abnormal mass-like shadow in the right lower pulmonary zone. A contrast enhanced computed tomography showed an 11 cm solid, cystic mixed mass on the right lower lobe. A right lower lobectomy was performed by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery without complications. The gross specimen showed a massive cavitation with multiloculated cysts of varying size, consistent with CCAM, along with noticeable granulomatous inflammation. Non-tuberculosis mycobacteria were isolated from a bronchial wash specimen, and the resected tissue homogenates were positive for Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex by polymerase chain reaction.

Congenital cystic disease of the lung is very rare and controversial disease. But in general is regarded as developmental anomaly. Occasionally failure of the primitive lung bud to develop combined with cardiac anomaly had been reported but it was very rare. Recently a case of cystic lung disease combined with pulmonic valvular stenosis was seen in this clinic with clinical pictures of nonspecific respiratory infection and X-ray finding very similar to that of far advanced pulmonary tuberculosis, destroyed left lung. This case was treated by closed pulmonic valvulotomy and left side pneumonectomy successfully.

A 51-year-old male was admitted due to mediastinal mass. Chest PA showed a $4{\times}5$ cm sized round mass on right lower paratracheal area. The chest computerized tomogram showed cystic mass located between superior vena cava and trachea. This cystic mass was composed of variable internal architecture with Hounsfield unit(HU) from -44.4 to +25.5. The resected cystic mass revealed ectodermal, mesodermal, and endodermal structures. We report a case of anterior mediastinal cystic teratoma confirmed by open thoracotomy.
