How to optimize the treatment strategy for patients of pulmonary sequestration with an elevated risk of fatal hemorrhage during operation: case discussion

Abstract: Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy, especially uniportal VATS, is increasingly used for pulmonary sequestration (PS). However, there are few descriptions of safe handling of the aberrant artery with atherosclerosis, especially the diameter of arteries exceeds than 2.0 cm, under uniportal VATS approach. Here we report a 56-year-old man who was diagnosed with pulmonary sequestration following trauma. The patient had a long history of cough with purulent sputum. One month before the trauma, he … Show more

“…DSA is the gold standard for the diagnosis of PS. Enhanced CT and CTA can clearly show aberrant feeding arteries, identify the initial site and shape of aberrant feeding arteries, and signi cantly reduce the risk of bleeding in the intraoperative blood vessels in the abnormal body circulation caused by insu cient preoperative evaluation [7,8]. For suspected patients with PS, enhanced CT and CTA can effectively reduce misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis of PS.…”
