AB  - From September 1989 to December 1994, 12 children with congenital 
      bronchopulmonary cystic disease were operated in the Department of Pediatric 
      Surgery, Santa Maria Hospital. Four cases of bronchogenic cyst (BC), 2 of cystic 
      adenomatoid malformation (CAM), 3 of pulmonary sequestration (PS), and 3 of 
      congenital lobar emphysema (CLE) were found. Age ranged between 9 days and 10 
      years without predominance of gender. Seven were younger than one year of age, of 
      which 5 were less than 6 months old at the time of surgery. The CAT scan was most 
      useful in the diagnosis and follow-up of these children. The review of these 
      cases helped evaluate our experience in the diagnosis and surgical approach for 
      these congenital malformations. Successful treatment depends on early diagnosis 
      and the planning of therapeutic priorities, based on the embryological and 
      pathophysiological knowledge at these anomalies. The embryological mechanisms 
      implicated in the development are discussed and the results of surgical treatment 
      are presented.
