title: Calcification in bronchopulmonary sequestration.
abstract: We report an unusual complication in a patient with intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration. Chest tomography, computed tomography, and specimen radiography showed a mass containing numerous round calcifications in the posterior basal segment of the left lower lobe. Pathologic examination disclosed an Exophiala fungus infection and broncholiths within bronchiectatic cavities in the sequestered segment.
