Abstract
We describe the rare case of bilateral bronchopulmonary sequestrations , one intralobar and one extralobar, in a 22-year old man. The coexist ence of two forms of separated sequestrations with a common vasculariz ation support the theory that intralobar as well as extralobar sequest rations are congenital malformations.
