present in more than one lobe of the lung in up to 3% of cases. If a CPAM lesion
also receives systemic blood supply, which is a characteristic of BPS, it is termed
a hybrid lesion . The tissue within a CPAM does not function in normal gas
exchange but is connected with the tracheobronchial tree; therefore, these lesions
can lead to air trapping and recalcitrant pulmonary infections. Rarely, patients
may develop malignant degeneration within the lesion (pleuropulmonary
blastoma, rhabdomyosarcoma).

BPSs arise from an accessory bronchopulmonary bud of the foregut.
Histologically, they consist of pulmonary tissue; however, they are not connected
with the normal bronchial tree or pulmonary vessels (and hence, the pulmonary
tissue is “sequestered”). Occasionally, sequestrations have a connection with the
esophagus or stomach, because of their foregut derivation. They have a systemic
rather than pulmonary blood supply. A sequestration is described as intralobar if
it is contained within the normal pleura, or extralobar if it has its own pleural
