Abstract

Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital lung disease which is characterized by recurrence infections, chronic cough and hemoptysis. We presented a patient with hemoptysis due to intralobar sequestration. The patient underwent operation, diagnosis and treatment methods were discussed in light of the literature. It is interesting that, the sequestration is placed in the inferior lobe of the right lung and the vascularization is from the abdominal aorta.
