Abstract

We present a case of a young male administered to our pulmonary clinic with symptoms that included high fever, pain into the chest and dyspnea. On auscultation there were bilateral crackle sounds, while on chest X-ray there were signs of pneumonia. There were three previous hospitalizations due to necrotizing interstitial pneumonias. Our patient underwent bronchoscopy and microbiological tests were sampled. He stayed into the hospital for 10 days. The investigation included a CT scan plus angiography that confirmed the diagnosis of pulmonary sequestration.
