    Abstract:
    A 32-year-old man with extralobar pulmonary sequestration under diaphragm is reported. The patient was admitted because of abnormal shadow on chest X-ray film without any complaints. Chest roentgenogram showed a homogenous density at the left cardiophrenic angle. Aortogram demonstrated an abnormal artery arising from the abdominal aorta to left subphrenic mass shadow. On laparotomy a large cystic mass connected with diaphragm was found behind the stomach and removed successfully. The postoperative course was uneventful. The histological diagnosis was subphrenic pulmonary sequestration. The frequency, localisation, pathogenesis of pulmonary sequestration are discussed.
