異常動脈を伴わない肺分画症の一手術例

抄録

A 49-year-old male was admitted with recurrent infected pulmonary cystic lesion. Chest X-ray film showed an infiltrative shadow with an air-fluid level in the right lower lobe and CT-scan showed a polycystic lesion. No arterial abnormality was found on aortography. Right lower lobectomy was carried out and pathologically, the lesion was intralobar sequestration without arterial abnormality.
This case seems to support the theory that pulmonary sequestration should be considered as a bronchovascular anomaly.
