Intra-abdominal extralobar pulmonary sequestration presenting antenatally as a suprarenal mass.

ABSTRACT

Extralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare pulmonary parenchymal anomaly which rarely may be present in an intra-abdominal location. The authors report a case of intra-abdominal extralobar pulmonary sequestration which presented to us as an antenatally diagnosed suprarenal mass and was worked up as such. The diagnosis was revealed only at laparotomy. Intra-abdominal extralobar pulmonary sequestration should also be kept in differential diagnosis in cases of masses in the suprarenal location, especially on the left side.
