Summary: | Here, we report the rare case of a 13-year-old girl with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia (also known as Bochdalek hernia), which was revealed to be an extralobar pulmonary sequestration that was treated using laparoscopic and video-assisted thoracic surgery sequestrectomy and repair of the diaphragm defect after detection of a supradiaphragmatic mass connected with the retroperitoneum. The patient showed no postoperative complications at a 1-month follow-up examination. |
