  • Title: Evaluation of angioarchitecture of pulmonary sequestration in pediatric patients using 3D MDCT angiography.
    Author: Lee EY, Siegel MJ, Sierra LM, Foglia RP.
    Journal: AJR Am J Roentgenol; 2004 Jul; 183(1):183-8. PubMed ID: 15208135.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: The goal of this study was to show the ability of 3D MDCT angiography to display the arterial and venous vascular anatomy of pulmonary sequestration in children. CONCLUSION: MDCT angiography with 3D rendering shows the anomalous feeding artery and the draining veins that allow a diagnosis of pulmonary sequestration. These features may prove useful in distinguishing intra- and extralobar sequestration and in surgical planning.
