  • Title: Pulmonary sequestration in the neonate.
    Author: Piccione W, Burt ME.
    Journal: Chest; 1990 Jan; 97(1):244-6. PubMed ID: 2295250.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital anomaly resulting in nonfunctioning lung tissue in either the "extralobar" or "intralobar" position. Both forms derive their blood supply from the systemic circulation. Large pulmonary sequestrations can present in the newborn with potentially fatal respiratory distress. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice.
