Separating Out Pulmonary Sequestration.

Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare congenital anomaly that accounts for 1% to 6% of all pulmonary malformations at birth. It is characterized by a focal area of pulmonary tissue that does not have direct communication with the tracheobronchial tree and does not get blood supply from the pulmonary circulation. We present the case of a 28-year-old female with a history of recurrent pulmonary infections who was found to have intralobar sequestration and underwent curative surgical excision.
