Use of multidetector CT angiography and 3D postprocessing in a case of pulmonary sequestration.
Pulmonary sequestration is a pulmonary malformation in which a portion of nonfunctioning bronchopulmonary tissue is separated from the rest of the lung parenchyma. We report the case of a 48-year-old woman with history of chronic pneumonia, studied with computed tomography and in whom we obtained three dimensional evaluation of the pathological structures.
