Рulmonary sequestration — is a rare congenital pathology

Abstract

Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital anomaly of lung tissue development. This condition involves the isolation of a lung fragment from the bronchial tree, with its blood supply provided by an aberrant artery, most commonly arising from the descending aorta. Surgical intervention remains the standard treatment method; however, international studies indicate a high risk of perioperative complications, underscoring the importance of thorough evaluation of surgical indications and careful postoperative monitoring. This article presents a clinical case of a 28-year-old female patient diagnosed with “Left lung sequestration”. The case highlights the significance of comprehensive diagnostic evaluation in patients with hemoptysis and recurrent pneumonia in the same lung region, even at a young age. Early detection and timely treatment of such pathology contribute to improved prognosis and reduced risk of complications.
