Giant branching aneurysmal aberrant systemic artery for intralobar pulmonary sequestration: computed tomographic depiction of arterial and bronchial anomaly.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aberrant systemic arteries supplying the intralobar pulmonary sequestration can become dilated and have atherosclerotic change. Computed tomography is very useful in demonstrating the aberrant artery. We report a case of intralobar pulmonary sequestration with giant branching aneurysmal aberrant artery, and demonstrated the discontinuity of the bronchus by 64-slice computed tomography, which has not previously been described.

Near-fatal haemoptysis as presentation of a giant intralobar pulmonary sequestration.
A 50-year-old female with no prior respiratory disease or symptoms presented with massive haemoptysis and respiratory failure. Multidetector computed tomographic angiography demonstrated an aberrant artery supplying a lobulated mass occupying two-thirds of the right chest (fig. 1a and b). Aortography confirmed a large aberrant systemic artery originating from the supra-diaphragmatic aorta (fig....
متن کاملMassive Hemoptysis in a Case of Intralobar Pulmonary Sequestration Associated with Pulmonary Hypoplasia and Meandering Right Pulmonary Vein: Diagnosis and Management
Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital malformation characterized by focal area of dysplastic lung tissue that lacks normal communication with tracheobronchial tree and receives blood supply from systemic arteries. Surgical resection has been the conventional method of treatment of pulmonary sequestration. In recent years transarterial embolization of the anomalous systemic arteries has emerge...
متن کاملIntralobar Pulmonary Sequestration Masquerading as Lung Abscess: A Rare Paediatric Presentation
Pulmonary sequestration refers to lack of normal airway connection and aberrant vascular supply, and it may be either intralobar or extralobar. Bronchial atresia involving the lower lobes, especially the left lower lobe, is often associated with aberrant systemic arterial connection, forming an “intralobar sequestration” in which a region of parenchyma is functionally isolated from the remainde...
متن کاملIntralobar pulmonary sequestration displayed as localized emphysema on computed tomography image
BACKGROUND Pulmonary sequestration is a relatively rare condition in which a systemic artery supplies blood to an abnormal lung tissue and the normal connection with the bronchial tree is absent. It can be displayed as various signs on the computed tomography image, but emphysema is extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION We describe the case of a 35-year-old man with intralobar pulmonary sequestra...
متن کاملSuccessful endovascular embolization of an intralobar pulmonary sequestration
Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital malformation characterized by dysplastic pulmonary tissue which receives blood supply by arterial systemic system, not in communication with tracheobronchial tree. Although it could be asymptomatic, it can also cause recurrent infections and hemoptysis, rarely massive and fatal. The conventional treatment consists in surgical resection of the pulmonary se...
