  • Title: Systemic arterial supply to the lung without sequestration: an unusual cause of hemoptysis.
    Author: Matzinger FR, Bhargava R, Peterson RA, Shamji FM, Perkins DG.
    Journal: Can Assoc Radiol J; 1994 Feb; 45(1):44-7. PubMed ID: 8118714.
    Abstract:
    Systemic arterial supply to the lung without sequestration is an unusual vascular anomaly in which a portion of normal lung tissue is supplied by an artery arising from the aorta. This entity shares some features with bronchopulmonary sequestration and hypogenetic lung (scimitar syndrome) but has unique imaging features that allow preoperative diagnosis. The authors describe such a case in a 21-year-old man who presented with hemoptysis.
