Abstract

A 19-year-old male experienced discomfort in the left chest. Chest computed tomography detected a 5-cm solid mass on the left diaphragm (Fig. 1). Surgery was performed for suspected diaphragmatic herniation. The mass had developed from the mediastinum with torsional pedunculation (Fig. 2). His condition was diagnosed as extralobar pulmonary sequestration with torsion. www.elsevier.com/locate/ejcts European Journal of Cardio-thoracic Surgery 39 (2011) e31
