An analysis of 400 intralobar and 133 extralobar sequestrations, 6 cases presenting intra- and extralobar sequestration simultaneously, 5 sequestrations of 1 whole lung and 2 bilateral intralobar sequestrations, was presented. This anomaly comprised 0.15-6.4% of all congenital pulmonary malformations. Usually the posterior basal segment was affected. The aberrant artery in intralobar sequestration originated in 74% of all cases from the thoracic aorta, and in 14.8% there was more than 1 anomalous artery. The mean diameter of the aberrant arteries was 6.3-6.6 mm. Usually arteries with predominantly elastic fibers were found. Arteriosclerotic changes were common, even in children. The venous return of the intralobar sequestration was, in 95.7% of all cases, via the pulmonary veins. In 13.7% of all cases other congenital malformations were observed. Symptoms arose within the 1st decade of life in 37.2%. Bronchography and retrograde arteriography were the mainstay of diagnosis. Sequestrations were not supplied by a bronchial artery. Treatment of choice was operation as early as possible. Altogether 7 operative deaths were reported, 5 of which were due to hemorrhage during surgery. Of the 133 extralobar sequestrations, 77.4% were located between diaphragm and lower lobe. The arterial supply was provided by branches of the aorta. Some cases were supplied with venous blood by branches of the pulmonary artery. In 6 cases secondary changes, such as tuberculosis or carcinoma were found. In 60% of all the patients symptoms occurred within the 1st decade of life. Preoperative diagnosis was correct in only 6 cases. There were 4 postoperative deaths.
