Diagnosing intralobar pulmonary sequestration
Statistics from Altmetric.com
An 11-year-old girl presented with abdominal pain and lethargy. Chest X-ray revealed a well-defined opacity in the right lower zone, projected over the medial aspect of the right hemidiaphragm (figure 1). She was treated with two courses of antibiotics but remained symptomatic with a cough. Repeat X-rays demonstrated no change in the opacity.
