Abstract

A 59-year-old man complained of fever due to infection in the intralobar pulmonary sequestration. On bronchoscopic examination, squamous cell carcinoma was found out at orifice of the left upper division bronchus. His pre-operative pulmonary function test showed low pulmonary reserve because of myelopathy. He underwent left S1 + 2 + S3 sleeve segmentectomy and S9 + 10 segmentectomy for intralobar pulmonary sequestration. He is well without any evidence of recurrence 10 months after surgery.
