Subjected to thoracoscopy, visualizing the right lung dependent mass between the middle and lower lobe, covered with pleura. The mass was punctured and removed by port extended to 8 mm., Evolution satisfactory lung expansion at 48 hrs., Chest tube is removed with the beginning of oral RX control unchanged. Graduated within 4 days. Histopathology: Pulmonary cystic adenomatoid malformation type II.
