[Congenitial Pulmonary Airway Malformation in an Adult with Pneumonia].

Congenitial pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) most commonly present respiratory distress in the prenatal or neonatal period, but may rarely be asymptomatic and is incidentally found in adult patients with acute or recurrent pneumonia. Herein, we report a case of a 26-year-old asymptomatic adult male patient with pneumonia of the right lower lobe. He was also found to have multiple cystic lesions in the same lobe which was suspected to be CPAM, and the right lower lobectomy was performed.

[Bronchial Typical Carcinoid Tumor Treated with Two-stage Resection;Report of a Case].

A 45-year-old woman, who had been treated for bronchial asthma, was referred to our hospital with symptoms of dyspnea. Upon examination, we found the right main bronchus to be almost completely occluded by an endobronchial tumor. For the purpose of diagnosis and relieving the dyspnea, we performed a rigid bronchoscopic tumor resection with a high frequency snare. The tumor was pathologically diagnosed as a typical bronchial carcinoid, and a right upper lobectomy and wedge resection of the right main bronchus was carried out 1 month later.
