  • Title: Intraabdominal pulmonary sequestration.
    Author: Franko J, Bell K, Pezzi CM.
    Journal: Curr Surg; 2006; 63(1):35-8. PubMed ID: 16373158.
    Abstract:
    Bronchopulmonary sequestration is an uncommon developmental abnormality that frequently presents as an incidental mass. Differential diagnosis includes malignancy. Reports of extralobar abdominal pulmonary sequestration in adults are sparse. Only 2.5% of all pulmonary sequestrations are detected below the diaphragm. The authors present a case of a 45-year-old woman and a literature review. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and operative and pathologic findings are provided. A review of diagnosis and therapy is presented.
