Abstract

Intralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare entity, which requires surgical resection as the treatment of choice. Recently, endovascular treatment for occlusion of the feeding artery has been frequently used with the increased availability regarding a variety of embolic materials, such as gelatin sponge particles, polyvinyl alcohol particles, and coils. Authors described the successful treatment of intralobar pulmonary sequestration with a Type II Amplatzer Vascular Plug and antibiotic-soaked gelatin sponge particles for complete occlusion of the feeding artery regarding intralolar pulmonary sequestration. Neither recanalization of the feeding artery for the sequestered lung nor other complications occurred during a 1-year follow-up.
