Bilateral pulmonary sequestrations: Distinct types sharing a common celiac artery origin, presented with pneumonia and associated findings in a pediatric case. Pediatric Pulmonology, 59(1), 218-220.8755-68631099-0496https://doi.org/10.1002/ppul.26735https://hdl.handle.net/11468/14122https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ppul.26735A 14-year-old boy presented with shortness of breath, cough, and mild chest pain, with a history of intermittent milder symptoms. Physical examination and initial tests showed mild iron deficiency anemia, elevated C-reactive protein, and normal vital signs. Chest radiograph revealed abnormalities in the left lower zone, leading to contrast-enhanced chest CT. The CT scan revealed bilateral intrapulmonary sequestrations, both deriving blood supply from a common trunk originating from the celiac artery. The patient's symptoms initially attributed to a pulmonary infection improved with antibiotic therapy. Pulmonary sequestration is a congenital anomaly characterized by aberrant lung tissue lacking connections to bronchial tree or pulmonary arteries. It can lead to recurrent pulmonary infections and postinfectious sequelae. This case presented a unique bilateral sequestration, both originating from the celiac artery. Radiologists should be aware of sequestration types and associated anomalies, even in atypical locations. Blood supply can originate from various arteries, not just the aorta.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBilateral pulmonary sequestrationCeliac arteryExtralobar sequestrationIntralobar sequestrationPulmonary sequestrationLetter591218220WOS:0010903771000012-s2.0-851745798703787773410.1002/ppul.26735Q1N/A
