Depending on the size of the CCAM, it may cause some breathing issues for the baby. Those babies can be delivered at a high-risk center where there are newborn support services and pediatric surgeons available.

The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia is making great strides in fetal surgery and the treatment of children with these conditions. More info at fetalsurgery.chop.edu
