Case series: unusual presentations of congenital lung malformations

Congenital Lung Malformations (CLM) are a group of rare lung abnormalities affecting the airways, parenchyma, and vasculature. Congenital lung malformations encompass several conditions such as Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation (CCAM), Congenital Lobar Emphysema (CLE), Diaphragmatic hernia, sequestration of lung.
