Abstract

Pulmonary sequestration is an uncommon congenital pulmonary anomaly associated with aberrant systemic arteries which usually originate from the thoracic aorta or abdominal aorta. Traditionally, surgical resection and ligation of the feeding vessels are the gold standard treatments of the disease. Endovascular intervention and hybrid operation are promising treatment options. However, the case reports with endovascular and hybrid treatment are sparse to our knowledge. We presented 2 symptomatic adult patients with pulmonary sequestration successfully treated by hybrid operation and transcatheter embolization, respectively. Besides, we reviewed 37 previously reported cases of pulmonary sequestration treated by endovascular or hybrid treatment.
