  • Title: A United States marine presenting with hemoptysis after push-ups.
    Author: Thurber JS, Unger JA, DeVries WC.
    Journal: Mil Med; 2014 Apr; 179(4):e466-8. PubMed ID: 24690975.
    Abstract:
    We present an unusual case of right lower lobe intralobar pulmonary sequestration in a previously healthy and physical active 27-year-old U.S. Marine, who presented with new onset hemoptysis after doing push-ups. Diagnosis was obtained by chest X-ray and contrast computed tomography scan. Preoperatively the patient underwent fluoroscopy-guided embolization of the aberrant systemic artery supplying the sequestration. The segmental resection of the sequestration was then successfully performed through a muscle-sparing thoracotomy.
