Özet
Congenital pulmonary sequestration (CPS) is a type of thoracic malformation that may be represented as a solid or cystic mass composed of nonfunctioning primitive tissue. It does not interact with the tracheobronchial tree and has unusual systemic blood supply. Various congenital malformations may be presented with CPS. More than one-half of CPS cases are diagnosed in later childhood or even in adulthood. Neonates and infants are usually asymptomatic, and they are usually diagnosed due to the presence of other congenital anomalies. Here, we report a 5-day-old neonate who was admitted to our clinic with respiratory distress. CPS was diagnosed without any other malformation.
