    Diaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestrations are rare congenital lung abnormalities. Surgical removal (sequesterectomy) led to successful outcomes in two cases presenting with unusual symptoms.

    Area of Science:

    • Thoracic Surgery
    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Congenital Abnormalities

    Background:

    • Extralobar pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital lung malformation.
    • These anomalies can present with varied and sometimes misleading clinical features.
    • Diaphragmatic involvement is an uncommon presentation of pulmonary sequestration.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe two unique cases of diaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestration.
    • To highlight the diagnostic challenges and surgical management of this condition.
    • To emphasize the importance of considering rare diagnoses in complex cases.

    Main Methods:

    • Case report analysis of two patients with diaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestration.
    • Detailed review of imaging findings, surgical procedures, and patient outcomes.

  • Histopathological confirmation of the diagnosis.

    • Main Results:

    • One case presented as a suprarenal mass, mimicking a tumor.
    • The second case was associated with a diaphragmatic hernia.
    • Both sequestrations received arterial supply from the abdominal aorta and were successfully treated with sequesterectomy.
    • Patients experienced uneventful recoveries.

    Conclusions:

    • Diaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestration can present atypically, simulating other pathologies.
    • Surgical sequesterectomy is an effective treatment for diaphragmatic extralobar pulmonary sequestration.
    • Early diagnosis and surgical intervention are crucial for favorable outcomes.
