Abstract

Pulmonary sequestration is a rare congenital abnormality especially in the adult population. It can commonly present as a cause for recurrent pneumonia or be found incidentally as an adult on imaging. We present a case of left lower lobe celiac trunk pulmonary sequestration in the setting of recurrent pneumonia to include histoplasmosis.
