Abstract
Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital pulmonary anomaly where a portion of the lung parenchyma is supplied by an anomalous systemic artery, usually originating from the thoracic or abdominal aorta. Traditionally surgical resection and ligation of the aberrant feeding vessel are the gold standard treatments of this disease. Hybrid operations consisting in endovascular arterial embolization and surgical resection is a promising treatment option. We report a case of a 69-years-old man with symptomatic intralobular sequestration successfully treated by hybrid approach.

Abstract
Pulmonary sequestration is an uncommon congenital malformation of the lung, generally diagnosed in childhood or adolescence, corresponding to dysplastic lung tissue not communicating with the rest of vascular or bronchial lung system but receiving an arterial blood supply from systemic arteries. Currently, surgical resection is usually indicated in order to prevent or treat related symptoms or complications, although controversy exists regarding its use in asymptomatic patients and adults. We present the case of a 32-year-old pregnant woman with acute chest pain and vomiting diagnosed with intralobar sequestration at 32+2 weeks of gestation and treated with pulmonary lobectomy after giving birth by cesarean section at 33+0 weeks of gestation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare congenital lung malformation that can be incidentally diagnosed in adulthood. The natural course of PS in adults is scarcely known. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, medical records and imaging results of adult patients diagnosed with PS between 1994 and 2019 were reviewed. Diagnoses of PS were confirmed by histopathological findings in resected cases, while non-resected cases were diagnosed based on the presence of anomalous systemic arterial supply and abnormal lung parenchyma on enhanced chest computed tomography (CT). RESULTS Among 104 patients with PS, the median age at diagnosis was 40.5 years, and 69 (66.3%) patients were asymptomatic. Patients in the surgery group were significantly younger (38.6 vs. 45.3 years, respectively, P=0.016), were more likely to be symptomatic initially (51.6% vs. 28.6%, respectively, P=0.015), and had larger PS (90.0 vs. 66.3 mm, respectively, P<0.001) than the non-surgery group. Of the patients in the surgery group, 29.0% (18/62) experienced postoperative complications. In the surgically resected cases, infections were only detected in intralobar PS, not in extralobar PS. Among 25 subjects without initial symptoms in the non-surgery group, 24 (96.0%) remained asymptomatic at the last follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Adults with PS tended to undergo resection if they were young, symptomatic, and had large PS (a median diameter of 90.0 mm). Almost all subjects who were initially asymptomatic and did not undergo surgery remained asymptomatic at the last follow-up. Therefore, considering the indolent course of PS, initially asymptomatic adults with PS could be followed up without surgery.

Abstract
Background Bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS) is a malformation of the lungs resulting in lung tissue lacking direct communication to the tracheobronchial tree. Most cases demonstrate systemic arterial blood supply from the descending thoracic aorta, the abdominal aorta, celiac axis or splenic artery and venous drainage via the pulmonary veins with occasional drainage into azygos vein. BPS is considered a childhood disease and accounts for 0.15–6.40% of congenital pulmonary malformations. BPS is divided into intralobar sequestrations (ILS) and extralobar sequestrations (ELS) with ILS accounting for 75% of all cases. Methods Here we present our 11-year experience of dealing with BPS; all cases presented with recurrent chest sepsis in young-late adulthood regardless of the type of pathological sequestration. The surgical technique employed was a minimally invasive video-assisted thoracoscopic anterior approach (VATS). Results Between May 2010 and September 2021, we have operated on nine adult patients with bronchopulmonary sequestration who presented late with symptoms of recurrent chest sepsis. Most patients in the cohort had lower lobe pathology, with a roughly even split between right and left sided pathology. Moreover, the majority were life-long never smokers and an equal preponderance in males and females. The majority were extralobar sequestrations (56%) with pathological features in keeping with extensive bronchopneumonia and bronchiectasis. There were no major intra-operative or indeed post-operative complications. Median length of stay was 3 days. Conclusions Dissection and division of the systemic feeding vessel was readily achievable through a successful anterior VATS approach, regardless of the type of sequestration and without the use of pre-operative coiling of embolization techniques. This approach gave excellent access to the hilar structures yet in this pathology, judicious and perhaps a lower threshold for open approach should be considered.

Abstract
Pulmonary sequestration consists of a nonfunctioning mass of lung tissue, either sharing the pleural envelope of the normal lung (intralobar) or with its own pleura (extralobar), lacking normal communication with the tracheobronchial tree and receiving its arterial supply by one or more systemic vessels. It is the second most common congenital lung anomaly according to pediatric case series, but its real prevalence is likely to be underestimated, and imaging plays a key role in the diagnosis and treatment management of the condition and its potential complications. We will give a brief overview of the pathophysiology, clinical presentation and imaging findings of intra- and extralobar pulmonary sequestration, with particular reference to multidetector computed tomography as part of a powerful and streamlined diagnostic approach.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare congenital malformation defined as nonfunctioning lung tissue supplied by systemic circulation. It is uncommonly diagnosed in adults. Herein, we describe a clinical case of PS with cystic degeneration mimicking a bronchogenic cyst in an elderly patient. PATIENT CONCERNS A huge cystic mass was incidentally found in a 65-year-old man on chest computed tomography (CT) scans during preoperative workup for a hand laceration. A 15-cm-sized round cystic mass was detected in the right lower lobe. DIAGNOSIS After reviewing the chest CT scan, we decided to perform contrast-enhanced chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT-guided lung aspiration biopsy. On MRI, the lesion had the appearance of a cystic mass with hemorrhagic clots, such as an intrapulmonary bronchogenic cyst. The aspirated specimen was nondiagnostic; thus, we decided to surgically remove the mass. INTERVENTIONS Upon right lower lobectomy, the mass was diagnosed as a PS. A thin systemic artery supplying the cystic mass was visualized during surgery. OUTCOMES The patient is undergoing regular follow-up at the outpatient clinic. CONCLUSIONS PS should be considered as a differential diagnosis in patients with a cystic lung mass. Identification of a systemic artery on radiologic imaging is important in the diagnosis of PS before preoperative workup to prevent unpredicted massive bleeding during surgery.

Abstract
In many cases of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC), the four pulmonary veins (PV) join together behind the left atrium, where they form a collector. This collector can drain into the right atrium directly through the innominate vein into the superior vena cava (SVC), into the coronary sinus (CS), or through the diaphragm to the venous structures of the abdomen. In our case, a mature newborn had TAPVC draining into the vena porta along with severe pulmonary hypertension. Additionally, there were right pulmonary sequestration, dextrocardia, transposition of the great arteries, severe pulmonary stenosis, and single ventricular pathology in echocardiographic examination. Clinical signs manifested in the first 7 days of life. Diagnostic tools used were echocardiography and angiography. A ductal stent was surgically implanted into the ductus arteriosus by angiography. TAPVC was found to be nonobstructive. Therefore, we would like to emphasize the rareness and hardness to perform the surgical ductal implant technique in our particular case of TAPVC with pulmonary sequestration draining into the vena porta. The prognosis in TAPVC is poor and related mainly to the existence of pulmonary venous obstruction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a form of congenital pulmonary malformation that is generally diagnosed in childhood or adolescence and usually resected when diagnosed. We aim to identify the clinical presentation and course of patients diagnosed to have PS during adulthood. METHODS Using a computer-assisted search of Mayo clinic medical records, we identified adult patients with PS diagnosed between 1997 and 2016. Clinical and radiological data were collected including postoperative course for those who underwent surgical resection. RESULTS We identified 32 adult patients with PS; median age at diagnosis was 42 years (IQR 28-53); 17 patients (53%) were men. The median sequestration size was 6.6 cm (IQR 4.4-9.3). The type of sequestration was intralobar in 81% and extralobar in 19%. The most common location was left lower lobe posteromedially (56%). Forty-seven percent of the patients presented with no relevant symptoms. The most common radiographic finding was mass/consolidation in 61% and the most common feeding artery origin was the thoracic aorta (54%). Surgical resection was performed in 18 patients (56%) and postoperative complication was reported in 5 patients (28%). There was no surgical mortality. Median duration of follow-up after diagnosis for unresected cases, most of whom were asymptomatic, was 19 months (IQR 4-26) with no complications related to the PS reported. CONCLUSIONS Nearly one-half of adult patients with PS present with no relevant symptoms. The decision regarding surgical resection needs to weigh various factors including clinical manifestations related to PS, risk of surgical complications, comorbidities, and individual patient preferences.

Abstract
Intrapulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital bronchopulmonary malformation. Surgery is generally standard treatment, and thoracoscopic resection has been accepted recently. Some patients have inflammatory change of the sequestrated lung and adhesion to the adjacent organs. In those cases, it is difficult to identify the aberrant artery. In thoracoscopic surgery cases, fatal intraoperative hemorrhage from the aberrant artery has been reported. We describe two patients with infected intralobar pulmonary sequestration who were treated by endostapling the aberrant artery filled with embolized coils. A 28-year-old man who had complained of right back pain and high fever was admitted to our hospital. The chest computed tomography (CT) scan showed infected intralobar pulmonary sequestration with consolidation and fluid collection in the right lower lobe. An aberrant artery entered the consolidation from the celiac trunk. After coil embolization, thoracoscopic right lower lobectomy was performed with endostapling of the aberrant artery, which had a diameter of 10 mm and was filled with metallic coils. A 51-year-old woman who had complained of repeated pneumonia was admitted to our hospital. The chest CT scan showed infected intralobar pulmonary sequestration with consolidation and fluid collection in the basal segment of the right lower lobe. After coil embolization, thoracoscopic right lower lobectomy was performed with endostapling of the aberrant artery arising from the right inferior phrenic artery, which had a diameter of 5 mm and was filled with coils. Both patients' clinical courses were uneventful postoperatively. Pathological examinations confirmed intralobar pulmonary sequestration with pneumonia. Endostapling with coils for treating the aberrant artery in pulmonary sequestration is a simple and safe technique of thoracoscopic resection. A coil-embolized artery can be identified easily in the inflamed, scarred pulmonary ligament, and intraoperative bleeding from the aberrant artery can be prevented.

Abstract
We herein report a case of one-stage laparoscopic surgery for extralobar pulmonary sequestration (EPS) and hiatal hernia. Our patient was a 2-year-old girl who was diagnosed as a mediastinal mass lesion. Postnatal computed tomography revealed that the mediastinal mass was an EPS. Two weeks after birth, the patient developed gastroesophageal reflux (GER), and esophagography showed a hiatal hernia. At 2 years of age, she underwent one-stage laparoscopic Nissen's fundoplication for GER with resection of the EPS in the posterior mediastinum. The sequestrated lung was grasped via the esophageal hiatus; three aberrant blood vessels were dissected to allow removal of the sequestration through the umbilical port site. The esophageal hiatus was repaired and Nissen's fundoplication was performed laparoscopically. The patient's postoperative course was uneventful, with no recurrence of GER symptoms for 1 year. We conclude that one-stage laparoscopic surgery is useful for patients with EPS and hiatal hernia.

Abstract
Extralobar pulmonary sequestration is a congenital lung malformation characterized by a non-functional lung segment with systemic feeding vessel. Over 90% of sequestrations are found in the thorax with less than 10% located in the abdomen. We present an unusual case of intra abdominal pulmonary sequestration, located suprarenally, adherent to both the stomach and the diaphragm. The malformation was surgically excised via laparoscopy in the second year of life, when no evidence of regression was found on follow up imaging. On the occasion of this description, the spectrum of bronchopulmonary foregut malformation is discussed.
