An Intraabdominal Pulmonary Sequestration Containing Congenital Cystic Adenomatoid Malformation
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
Pulmonary sequestration is a complex anomaly involving the pulmonary parenchymal tissue and its vasculature. It presents as a cystic mass of nonfunctional lung tissue without communication with the tracheobronchial system. Usually, it receives
blood
supply from anomalous systemic vessels. Therefore, preoperative diagnosis of the pulmonary sequestration is difficult, especially when it is located in the abdomen and combined with congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM. We encountered
such a
mass(CCAM type 2) detected prenatally by ultrasonography. It was a kidney bean shaped, pinkish mass straddling the thorax and abdomen on the right side. Because of the sonographic appearance, neuroblastoma was diagnosed preoperatively. The mass
was
completely extirpated without difficulty.
