“…Pulmonary sequestration accounts for 0.15-6.45% of all lung malformations (9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14) and is characterized by normal, nonfunctioning lung tissue that has no connection with the bronchial tree and receives its blood supply from the systemic circulation. (4,10,(12)(13)(14) Pulmonary sequestrations can be classified as extralobar or intralobar depending on their location in relation to the adjacent normal lung and on their visceral pleural covering.…”

“…(5) is covered by visceral pleura and separated from the functioning lung, whereas intralobar pulmonary sequestration can be completely covered by normal lung tissue or by a segment of the visceral pleura of the lung lobe within which the sequestration occurs. (11)(12)(13)(14) Pulmonary sequestrations are responsible for 1.1-1.8% of all pulmonary resections. (14) In rare cases, the extralobar and intralobar forms can occur simultaneously.…”

“…Although there is a consensus that the extralobar form is congenital, it is still debated whether the intralobar form is congenital or acquired. (11) There is a theory that intralobar pulmonary sequestration is either congenital, arising from a lung bud that originates in the foregut, or a result of a sequence of events, including bronchial obstruction, pneumonia, local pleurisy, and parasitization of pulmonary ligament arteries. (17) No chromosomal abnormalities have been associated with pulmonary sequestration.…”

“…(10,15,18) Extralobar pulmonary sequestrations are generally located in the lower lobes of the left lung (80%), (4,13,15,19) in close proximity to the costophrenic sulcus (Figure 1), and are less common than are intralobar pulmonary sequestrations, which account for approximately 75% of all cases of pulmonary sequestrations. (9)(10)(11)13,15,18,20) Approximately 10% of all extralobar pulmonary sequestrations are located below the diaphragm. (18) In intralobar pulmonary sequestrations, there is no lung segment predominance (10) ; however, some authors have reported a greater frequency of intralobar pulmonary sequestrations in the posterior basal segment of the left lower lobe.…”

Congenital lung malformations are rare and vary widely in their clinical presentation and severity, depending mostly on the degree of lung involvement and their location in the thoracic cavity. They can manifest at any age and can be the source of significant morbidity and mortality in infants and children. Individuals with congenital lung malformations can present with respiratory symptoms at birth or can remain asymptomatic for long periods. Recently, there has been an increase in the early diagnosis of these malformations, a change that is attributable to the routine use of prenatal ultrasound. The clinical manifestation of these malformations varies from respiratory distress in the immediate postnatal period to an incidental finding on chest X-rays. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment offer the possibility of absolutely normal lung development. The treatment of asymptomatic patients with lung malformations is controversial, because the prognosis of these diseases is unpredictable. The management of these lesions depends on the type of malformation and symptoms. Because of the risk of complications, most authors recommend resection of the lesion at the time of diagnosis. Lobectomy is the procedure of choice and yields excellent long-term results. This article describes the principal congenital lung malformations, their diagnosis, and the controversies regarding treatment.Keywords: Cystic adenomatoid malformation of lung, congenital; Bronchopulmonary sequestration; Pulmonary surgical procedures; Diagnosis. ResumoAs malformações congênitas do pulmão são raras e variam muito na sua forma de apresentação clínica e gravidade, dependendo principalmente do grau de envolvimento pulmonar e de sua localização na cavidade torácica. Elas podem se manifestar em qualquer idade e podem ser fonte de importante morbidade e mortalidade em lactentes e crianças. Os indivíduos com malformações congênitas do pulmão podem apresentar sintomas respiratórios ao nascimento, enquanto outros podem permanecer assintomáticos por longos períodos. Atualmente, com o uso rotineiro da ultrassonografia pré-natal, vem ocorrendo um aumento no diagnóstico mais precoce dessas malformações. A manifestação clínica dessas malformações varia desde uma disfunção respiratória pós-natal imediata a um achado acidental na radiografia de tórax. O diagnóstico precoce e o tratamento imediato oferecem a possibilidade de um desenvolvimento pulmonar absolutamente normal. Quando assintomáticos, a conduta para o tratamento dos pacientes com malformações pulmonares ainda é controversa, uma vez que o prognóstico dessas afecções é imprevisível. O manejo dessas lesões depende do tipo de malformação e de sintomas. Devido ao risco de complicação, a maioria dos autores sugere a ressecção da lesão no momento em que essa é identificada. A lobectomia é o procedimento de escolha, fornecendo excelentes resultados a longo prazo. Este artigo descreve as principais malformações pulmonares congênitas, seu diagnóstico e controvérsias quanto o tratamento. (5) is covered by ...
