چکیده

Pulmonary systemic arterialization to normal basal lung without sequestration is a rare congenital anomaly. In this rare abnormality, arterialization of the left lower lobe is the most common type. In general, surgical treatments have been performed. Recently, for reducing the complications and risks of surgery, embolization is mainly attempted by using coils. We report a case of 22-year-old male patient with a 10 mm anomalous arterial supply to his normal lung, which is being successfully treated by transcatheter embolization when using the Amplatzer Vascular Plug that has been adapted for the treatment of high-flows and large artery occlusions.

Anomalous systemic arterial supply to the normal basal segments of the left lower lobe is a rare congenital anomaly. Although most cases are asymptomatic, treatment is recommended for all patients with or without symptoms because of their potential risk for hemoptysis due to pulmonary hypertension and heart failure due to systemic arteryto-pulmonary vein shunt. There are several surgical proced...
