Article Abstract
Bronchopulmonary sequestration is a rare lesion characterized by abnormal lung tissue that lacks a normal bronchial communication and is supplied by an anomalous systemic artery. It has a variety of imaging appearances, including that of consolidation, a mass, or an air or fluid-filled cystic or multicystic lesion. This article reviews the imaging spectrum of bronchopulmonary sequestration, its important parenchymal mimics, and conditions that share the feature of anomalous systemic arterial supply to the lung.

Computed tomography (CT)-based classification and management pathways for hybrid lesions in children: a comparative analysis of congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) and bronchopulmonary sequestration (BPS).

Aim: To establish a CT-based classification system for hybrid lesions in children, elucidate misdiagnosis mechanisms, and propose optimized clinical management pathways through comparative analysis with isolated CPAM and BPS.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 393 children with surgically confirmed congenital lesions (87 hybrids, 218 CPAMs, 88 BPS) from two centers (2010-2022). Hybrid lesions were classified preoperatively: Type A: cystic lesion + systemic arterial supply; Type B: solid lesion + systemic arterial supply; Type C: solid lesion - systemic arterial supply.
Introduction: Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital anomaly of the lower respiratory tract, usually diagnosed in childhood. It involves lung parenchyma that has abnormal or absent communication with the tracheobronchial tree. The blood supply is not connected to the pulmonary circulation but comes from the systemic circulation.

We encountered a rare case of bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration presenting as horseshoe lung. A 44-year-old asymptomatic woman was referred to our hospital because of increased serum cancer antigen 125 and carbohydrate antigen 19-9, accompanied by an abnormal chest shadow. Preoperative imaging indicated a horseshoe-shaped bilateral intralobar pulmonary sequestration diagnosis.

Objective: To summarize and analyse the efficacy of minimally invasive thoracoscopic surgery for neonatal symptomatic congenital lung malformations (CLMs).
Methods: The clinical data of 36 newborns (aged < = 28 days) with symptomatic CLMs who underwent thoracoscopic surgery at Foshan Women and Children's Hospital from April 2017 to May 2023 were retrospectively analysed.
Results: Among the 36 patients, 33 had neonatal pneumonia before the operation, 8 had tachypnea with or without respiratory distress at birth, 3 had weak breathing and cyanosis requiring assisted ventilation and 1 had mediastinal displacement due to large lung lesions.

Pulmonary sequestration was first described by Pryce in 1946. It is a developmental abnormality of the lung, in which a portion of lung tissue is isolated from the normal lung and receives blood supply from an anomalous artery branching off the body's circulatory system. In recent years, advances in diagnostic imaging, particularly computed tomography (CT), have made the preoperative diagnosis of pulmonary sequestration more straightforward.
