LA75.6 Congenital sequestration of lung
International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01
A medical condition wherein a piece of tissue that ultimately develops into lung tissue is not attached to the pulmonary arterial blood supply, as is the case in normally developing lung. As a result, this sequestered tissue is not connected to the normal bronchial airway. With intralobar sequestration, the lung tissue lies within the same visceral pleura as the lobe in which it occurs With extralobar sequestrations, an accessory lung is contained within its own pleura
