Objective: The surgical treatment of congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAM) remains a subject of debate. This study aimed to deeply analyze the preoperative CT imaging data to explore the anatomical characteristics of CPAM lesions, providing additional information to guide surgical treatment for such conditions. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of children with congenital pulmonary airway malformations who underwent surgery between 2020 and 2024 at our hospital. Preoperative CT images were processed using 3D Slicer software to analyze the volume, external boundaries, vascular and airway * Deleted[admin]:
