INTRODUCTION: Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare congenital malformation defined as nonfunctioning lung tissue supplied by systemic circulation. It is uncommonly diagnosed in adults. Herein, we describe a clinical case of PS with cystic degeneration mimicking a bronchogenic cyst in an elderly patient.
PATIENT CONCERNS: A huge cystic mass was incidentally found in a 65-year-old man on chest computed tomography (CT) scans during preoperative workup for a hand laceration. A 15-cm-sized round cystic mass was detected in the right lower lobe.
DIAGNOSIS: After reviewing the chest CT scan, we decided to perform contrast-enhanced chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and CT-guided lung aspiration biopsy. On MRI, the lesion had the appearance of a cystic mass with hemorrhagic clots, such as an intrapulmonary bronchogenic cyst. The aspirated specimen was nondiagnostic; thus, we decided to surgically remove the mass.
INTERVENTIONS: Upon right lower lobectomy, the mass was diagnosed as a PS. A thin systemic artery supplying the cystic mass was visualized during surgery.
OUTCOMES: The patient is undergoing regular follow-up at the outpatient clinic.
CONCLUSIONS: PS should be considered as a differential diagnosis in patients with a cystic lung mass. Identification of a systemic artery on radiologic imaging is important in the diagnosis of PS before preoperative workup to prevent unpredicted massive bleeding during surgery.
