Abstract:
Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by non-functional lung tissue receiving blood supply from an abnormal source. PS is typically diagnosed in young individuals but is uncommon in the elderly. This abstract describes a case of PS in a 62-year-old male patient presenting with recurrent fever, chronic cough, and difficulty breathing. Imaging revealed abnormal lung tissue disconnected from the bronchial tree, with blood supply from the descending thoracic aorta. Surgical intervention successfully treated the condition. The case emphasizes the need to consider PS as a possible diagnosis, even in older patients, and suggests further research into its possible etiologies.
摘要:
肺隔离症(PS)是一种罕见的先天性异常,其特征是无功能的肺组织从异常来源接受血液供应。PS通常在年轻人中诊断,但在老年人中并不常见。本摘要描述了一名62岁男性患者反复发烧的PS病例,慢性咳嗽,呼吸困难.影像学显示异常的肺组织与支气管树断开,由降胸主动脉供血.手术干预成功治疗了该病症。该案例强调需要考虑PS作为一种可能的诊断,即使是老年患者,并建议进一步研究其可能的病因。
