Pulmonary pseudosequestration receiving arterial supply from a coronary artery fistula. A case report.
A forty-eight-year-old man with a history of pulmonary tuberculosis and scarring of both hila and upper lobes was noted to have bilateral pulmonary pseudosequestration, in which the blood supply originated from a coronary artery fistulous vessel arising from the left circumflex artery and draining into the pulmonary artery. This is the first reported patient with the source of blood supply to the pulmonary pseudosequestration arising from a coronary artery fistula.
