As a rare congenital thoracic malformation, pulmonary sequestration is composed of nonfunctioning primitive lung tissue. It has anomalous systemic supply rather than the pulmonary circulation and no connection with the tracheobronchial tree. It may present as respiratory infection or asymptomatic mass on chest imaging studies. Surgical removal is the treatment of choice. This paper presents a case of intralobar pulmonary sequestration that presented during childhood.
