Bronchopulmonary sequestration associated with an aneurysm of the aberrant artery.
We describe a patient with an intralobar bronchopulmonary sequestration of the right lower lobe associated with a true aneurysm of the aberrant artery. Both findings were suspected before operation. The patient was treated successfully by resection of the right lower lobe with the sequestered lung tissue and aneurysm.
