The blood supply of the sequestered area is not from the pulmonary aeries but from the aoa or its branches. Sequestration may be intralobar or extralobar. Intralobar sequestration is the sequestered bronchopulmonary mass within the pleural covering of the affected lung. Extralobar sequestration is the sequestered mass of lung tissue lying outside the pleural investing layer such as in the base of left lung or below the diaphragm. The extralobar sequestration is predominantly seen in infants and children and is often associated with other congenital malformations.
