Abstract

Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital pulmonary anomaly characterized by lung tissue with an abnormal structure that is fed by the systemic circulation and has no connection with the bronchial system. The average age at diagnosis for intralobar sequestration is 20. It is usually supplied by a single systemic artery. In this case presentation, we aimed to present a 60-year-old patient diagnosed with intralobar sequestration that is fed by two separate systemic arteries.

İleri Yaşta Dev Pulmoner Sekestrasyon Olgusu

Abstract

Pulmoner sekestrasyon beslenmesini sistemik dolaşımdan alan, bronşial sistemle bağlantısı olmayan anormal yapıda akciğer dokusu bulunan konjenital pulmoner anomalidir. Intralobar sekestrasyonun ortalama tanı yaşı 20’dir. Genellikle bir sistemik
arterden beslenir. Biz bu vaka sunumumuzda iki ayrı sistemik arterden beslenen intralobar sekestrasyon tanılı 60 yaşındaki bir hastayı sunmayı amaçladık.
