RESUMO
Over 250 cases of intralobar pulmonary sequestration have now been reported (Ranniger and Valvassori, 1964). The diagnosis which may be suscepted on the clinical, plain radiograph and bronchographic findings, depends on the angiographic or operative demonstration of an aberrant systemic arterial supply to the affected segment. The preoperative angiographic visualization of this pulmonary systemic arterialization arising from the thoracic or abdominal aorta either as a single large vessel (McDowell, Robb, and Indyk, 1955) or as multiple small arteries (Turk and Lindskog, 1961) to a large extent eliminates the operative hazards (Harris and Lewis, 1940). This paper reports an unusual case of pulmonary intralobar sequestration in association with bilateral aberrant systemic arteries. The angiographic and operative findings suggest that this may be a case of bilateral pulmonary sequestration (Summary)

A case of intralobar pulmonary sequestration is presented. The importance of aortography in establishing the pre-operative diagnosis and demonstration of the anomalous arterial supply of the segment is stressed. This is the second radiological case reported to be presented in this series (AU)
