Our purpose was to study the outcome of pregancy with a prenatal diagnosis of fetal congenital cystic adenomatoid lung malformation.
METHODS

RESULTS
There were 25 CCALM cases. Mean gestational age at diagnosis was 22.4 weeks. All cases except 1 case arised from unilateral lung and 11 cases arised from right lung. Twenty-one pregnancies continuned until term. Regression of the sonographic appearance was observed in 11cases (44%). No adverse sequelae are evident in newborn.
