Area of Science:

  • Congenital malformations
  • Thoracic surgery
  • Pediatric surgery

Context:

  • Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital anomaly.
  • It is characterized by nonfunctioning lung tissue separate from the normal tracheobronchial tree.
  • Extralobar sequestration, a rare subtype, often presents with associated anomalies.

Purpose:

  • To report a rare case of extralobar retroperitoneal pulmonary sequestration.
  • To highlight its unusual presentation mimicking an adrenal tumor.
  • To emphasize the importance of diagnostic considerations in rare congenital lung anomalies.

Summary:

  • A case of extralobar retroperitoneal pulmonary sequestration presented as an adrenal tumor.
  • Diagnosis was confirmed via anatomo-pathological examination.

  • No associated congenital malformations were identified in this specific case.

    • Impact:

    • This case expands the differential diagnosis for retroperitoneal masses in pediatric patients.
    • It underscores the need for comprehensive evaluation of congenital lung anomalies.
    • Highlights the importance of histopathological confirmation in diagnosing rare conditions.
