Abstrakt: Definitive diagnosis of pulmonary sequestration requires angiographic visualization of the anomalous feeding and draining vessels. The authors report a young woman who presented with persistent cough of two months' duration. Diagnosis of pulmonary sequestration was established with magnetic resonance (MR) angiography, which demonstrated abnormal feeding arteries to the sequestrum from the thoracic aorta with draining pulmonary veins.
