Myths vs Facts

In January 2026 we’re doing a series of myths vs facts about lung malformations. Check back to see the page get updated as we go.

Myth # 1: “I did something to cause this”


Fact: You didn’t. CLMs aren’t caused by anything the mother did or didn’t do in pregnancy.

Myth # 2: “CLMs are getting more common”


Fact: No — we’re just diagnosing them earlier and more often with better ultrasound technology.
