Opacité thoracique chez un nouveau-né révélant un kyste adénomatoïde du poumon. Observation radio-échographique.

: In a preterm infant (28 week gestation), the chest film performed at 1 hour of life because of mild respiratory insufficiency showed a massive opacity of the right hemithorax. Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation was suspected on the basis of ultrasonographic findings of multiple cysts. It was confirmed by further X ray examination and pathologic findings. This unusual case shows the ultrasonographic pattern and X ray evolution of this rare malformation.
