In the present case, the attending obstetrician had performed an ultrasonography at 6 weeks of gestation demonstrating a single, 17 x 20 mm gestational sac (chorion) (Figure 1).
Transabdominal ultrasonography is presenting the co-triplet fetus with multicystic lung lesions, suggesting congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (arrow) at 24 weeks.

The obstetric course was unremarkable until 24 weeks, when ultrasonographic examination revealed that one of the triplet fetuses had developed a multicystic lung lesion suggestive of CCAM, with the largest cyst measuring 10 mm in diameter (Figure 2).
The photograph is demonstrating a single placenta with marginal cord insertion.

A single placenta weighing 1080 g and three distinct membranes were demonstrated (Figure 3).
Computerized tomography of the infant at 3 months: two cystic masses in the middle lobe of the right lung, suggesting congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (arrows).

Computerized tomography (CT) of the infant at 3 months demonstrated two cystic lesions in the middle lobe of the right lung (25 mm and 15 mm in diameter) (Figure 4).
A repeat computerized tomography of the infant at 6 months presents a 30 mm solitary cystic mass (arrow).
