Abstract
The preoperative evaluation of pulmonary sequestration requires delineation of the arterial supply and venous drainage of both the sequestered segment and the neighboring lung. In this case magnetic resonance imaging was the sole modality which demonstrated all components of the arterial and venous circulations of a sequestration and the remainder of the ipsilateral lung.
