متن کاملIntralobar pulmonary sequestration in conjunction with bronchial isomerism.
Pulmonary sequestration is an uncommon congenital anomaly characterised by a mass of non-functional, dysplastic lung parenchyma that docs not communicate with the normal tracheobronchial tree.

The sequestered pulmonary segment is considered to be intralobar if it is enclosed within the common pleura enveloping the...

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 کاملDiagnostic imaging of intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration.
as an area of nonfunctioning abnormal lung tissue which receives its blood supply from a systemic artery and characteristically has no connection with the tracheobronchial tree.2 About 70 percent of all the reported cases are of the intralobar variety.' The abnormal lung tissue in the intralobar type is located within the visceral pleura of a pulmonary lobe, whereas the extralobar form is like ...
