A patient was referred at 21 weeks' gestation for evaluation of an echogenic mass in the fetal right chest. Color-doppler sonography facilitated the diagnosis of a bronchopulmonary sequestration. Clinicopathologic correlation was possible after termination at 2.3 weeks' gestation.

Color doppler is a useful adjunct in the sonographic evaluation of the fetus with an echogenic chest mass.
