| Popis: |
A 43-year-old female was admitted to our hospital because of an abnormality detected in chest radiography. Chest radiographs showed a nodular shadow behind the heart. Chest CT revealed a nodule connected to the descending aorta with increased blood flow in left lower lobe, suggesting the presence of a pulmonary sequestration. Bronchography showed an intralobar sequestrated lung in the left lower lobe. Aortography demonstrated that the sequestrated lung was fed by an anomalous artery 20 mm in diameter, originating from the celiac artery. From those findings, Pryce type IIintralobar pulmonary sequestration was diagnosed, and the left lower lobe was removed. Histological findings from the excised tissues showed mild dilatation of the bronchioles and hypervascularity. |
