[A case of bronchopulmonary sequestration].

Introduction: Bronchopulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital abnormality characterized by the presence of a non-functioning mass of lung tissue which receives an aberrant arterial supply from systemic circulation.

Case Report: We describe the case of a 30-year-old man who presented with recurrent episodes of mild hemoptysis. CT angiography revealed a right inferior lobar sequestration supplied by three systemic arteries. The patient underwent thoracotomy with right lower lobectomy and section-ligature of the three abnormal vessels.

Conclusion: This case highlights the radiological features as well as the intraoperative appearances of this rare anomaly.
