Core Tip |
The intralobar pulmonary sequestration (IPS) of right lower lobe of the lung (RLL) is less than 10% of all the pulmonary sequestration. It is rare to encounter that right coronary artery is being the source of systemic arterial supply to IPS of RLL. This anomalous artery was the reason for ischemia in the area subtended by right coronary artery (RCA) by coronary steal phenomenon. A significant stenosis of RCA just distal to origin of the anomalous artery supplying the IPS is extremely rare which was further worsening ischemia by incremental steal. We felt excessive stealing from RCA was the reason for ischemic ventricular tachycardia in this patient. Angioplasty of right coronary stenosis relieved ischemia in the area subtended by RCA by removing obstruction and reducing coronary steal.
