RESUMEN
Bronchial atresia coexistent with intralobar pulmonary sequestration is so rare that only two cases have been reported in the literature. We report a case of congential bronchial atresia coexistent with intralobar pulmonary sequestation in a 51 year-old woman. Computed tomography showed the branching mass with hyperinflation of adjacent pulmonary parenchyma in the medial segment of the right middle lobe and a large thin-walled cystic mass with air-fluid levels in the medial basal segment of the right lower lobe. Selective inferior phrenic arteriography showed two aberrant arteries supplying the large cystic mass in the right lower lobe. The venous drainage was through the right pulmonary vein.

This report describes a sclerosing hemangioma of the lung evaluated by MRI. The mass demonstrated hyperintense signal on T1 -weighted, proton density, and T2-weighted spin-echo images. Contrast-enhanced T1 -weighted images showed marked, homogeneous enhancement of the mass. The MR appearance is not specific for sclerosing hemangioma of the lung, as other benign tumors can appear similarly. However, the appearance of homogeneous enhancement within the mass on Gd-DTPA enhanced MR may suggest the diagnosis.
