- Abstract
The article presents a case study of a 35-year-old woman at 23 weeks' gestation which likely has congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM). Ultrasound examination shows a lesion in the left side of the thorax and was assumed to be a bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS). With the presence of fetal hydrops and a large hydrothorax, one ultrasound-guided thin needle insertion was performed successfully and a neonate was delivered uneventfully at term.
