ABSTRACT
Pulmonary sequestration is a bronchopulmonary tissue mass that does not communicate with the tracheobronquial tree; it receives its blood supply from systemic vessels. Pulmonary sequestration counts for 6% of all congenital pulmonary malformations. In this case was shown with respiratory distress by compression of normal lung tissue in the affected side.
