  • Title: [Intrapulmonary sequestration operated by video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery lobectomy; report of a case].
    Author: Yamashita S, Nakagawa M, Kawahara K.
    Journal: Kyobu Geka; 2007 Dec; 60(13):1196-9. PubMed ID: 18078090.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary sequestration is a rare malformation of the respiratory tract. We here report an adult case of intralobar pulmonary sequestration with aberrant artery of the right lower lobe. A 20-year-old man admitted to our hospital with a chest discomfort. Chest computed tomography (CT), angiography, and scintigraphy showed abnormal findings of the right lower lobe with an aberrant artery. Under the diagnosis of pulmonary sequestration, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy was performed. VATS is useful for the operation of pulmonary sequestration.
