description Bronchopulmonary sequestration is a rare anomaly of the lung which is characterized by the presence of a mass of lung tissue which has no connection with the normal bronchopulmonary tree. Sequestration is of two types - intralobar and extralobar, of which intralobar is the more common one.

This case is being presented to highlight the radiological as well as the intraoperative appearance of this rare anomaly.
