Port-Access Thoracoscopic Anatomical Segmentectomy for Pediatric Intralobar Pulmonary Sequestration
نویسندگان
چکیده
This report describes successful port-access thoracoscopic anatomical left lateral and posterior basal (S9 + 10) lung segmentectomy performed for intralobar pulmonary sequestration (ILPS) in a 5-year-old girl with recurrent pneumonia. Computed tomography revealed a multilocular lung abscess and an anomalous artery arising from the left gastric artery supplying the affected segment. After diagnosing ILPS, we performed thoracoscopic anatomical S9 + 10 segmentectomy. We consider thoracoscopic lung segmentectomy to be an important therapeutic option for pediatric ILPS.

Anatomical segmentectomy is an advantageous procedure because it spares healthy lung that has potential to show compensatory growth after lung resection and decreases the risk of air leak and residual resection, which becomes a problem in wedge resection. However, anatomical segmentectomy has not become a common procedure in pediatrics because it requires more complicated procedure than lobecto...

BACKGROUND Pulmonary sequestration is an uncommon congenital condition for which surgical resection is usually indicated - either via open thoracotomy or conventional multi-port Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS). Of the two types of sequestration, intralobar sequestration is technically more challenging to resect. CASE PRESENTATION We report the management of a 34 year old male pati...

Introduction: Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital abnormality that is usually diagnosed in childhood. When diagnosed in adults, patients are usually symptomatic and undergo open thoracotomy and lobectomy. However, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VAts) has become a viable alternative. case series: We present three cases in which adults underwent VAts lobectomy. the rese...

Video-assisted thoracoscopic treatment of intralobar pulmonary sequestration in an obese (120 kg, body mass index 42) young man is described. Two aberrant arteries originating from the descending thoracic aorta were transected with a vascular stapler, and a left lower lobectomy was successfully performed thoracoscopically. Three-dimensional chest computed tomography was used to identify the abe...
متن کاملVideo-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy in the treatment of intralobar pulmonary sequestration.
Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital malformation characterised by cystic, non-functioning embryonic lung tissue with vascularisation of an abnormal systemic artery. They are classified as intralobar (75%) and extralobar (25%) and are more common in the left lung and lower lobes (60-90%). We report two cases of intralobar pulmonary sequestration located in the lower lobe of the left lung whi...
