Abstract

A case of intralobar sequestration of 53-year-old woman was reported.<br>Chest roentgenogram at the mass survey revealed a round, circumscribed tumor-like shadow in the right lower lobe.<br>At operation, an egg-sized soft cystic mass was found in the right lower lobe. An abnormal vessel, 8mm in diameter, originating from the thoracic aorta, was entering into the cystic mass. After ligation of this abnormal vessel, right lower lobectomy was carried out.<br>Gross pathologic examination revealed that the mass was a multilocular cyst which contained dark red material.<br>Microscopically, the wall was lined by the ciliated columnar epithelium, resting upon loose connective tissue. Smooth muscle and cartilage were also noted.
