  ABSTRACT: Background: Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is a congenital anomaly of lung development, accounting for approximately 25% of congenital lung lesions. Respiratory distress often occurs during the neonatal period, and in 80% to 85% of cases, the diagnosis is made before the age of 2 years following respiratory infections. Case Report: We report a case of MAKC diagnosed in the neonatal period. The diagnosis was based on clinical, radiological and histological elements. Our patient underwent surgical resection. Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of MAKC without any sign of malignancy. The postoperative evolution was good. Conclusion: Clinicians and pathologists should recognize the early discovery of MAKC in neonatal age. The clinical diagnosis strongly guided by the radiological approach is confirmed by the pathological anatomy insofar as the therapeutic sanction is surgical in the majority of the cases.
