The use of prenatal ultrasonography has improve the detection of fetal abnormalities, which affects the perception about the natural history and evolution of them, changing the management of the fetus and neonate. Today, it is possible to perform an early prenatal diagnosis, and be treated even intrauterine with high rates of success. Such is the case of Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation (CCAM), characterized by abnormal proliferation and dilatation of the terminal structures of the airway, generating multiple cysts of diferent sizes and locations. The CCAM can be asymptomatic until adulthood, but sometimes it is presented as an adverse perinatal outcome, manifested with ascites, hydrothorax, hydrops and hypoplasia of the affected lung. We report a case of a pregnant women, 32-year-old, diagnosed on the 18 week pregnancy by ultrasound Type 3 Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation disease. Treated with an intrauterine intervention percutaneous fetal sclerotherapy successfully.

Article Synopsis
- Squamous cells in thyroid fine needle aspirations (FNAs) are rare and can indicate both malignant and benign conditions, with a study identifying 107 cases over 22 years.
- Out of these, 44.9% were found to be malignant, including types like anaplastic thyroid carcinoma and various metastatic squamous cell carcinomas, while others showed benign features related to developmental cysts or metaplastic changes.
- The findings underscore the importance of contextual clinical assessment and further analysis to ensure accurate diagnosis and optimal treatment for patients presenting with squamous cells in thyroid FNAs.

An adenomatoid tumor (AT) is a benign lesion, which is commonly located in the genital tract of both sexes. We present a case of a 66-yr-old woman with the unusual characteristics of an AT mimicking peritoneal carcinomatosis. The tumor was detected incidentally by ultrasound examination, and an ensuing imaging study raised suspicion of ovarian cancer with peritoneal carcinomatosis.

Adenomatoid tumors are rare benign neoplasms arising from mesothelial cells, commonly found in the female genital system, particularly the uterus and fallopian tubes. The giant cystic variant of adenomatoid tumor is exceptionally rare and can cause massive growth mimicking malignant gynecological conditions. Histology and immunohistochemistry play a crucial role in confirming the diagnosis, with markers such as calretinin, D2-40, CK7, BAP1, ER, and WT1 proving useful.
