Pulmonary sequestration (PS) is a rare lung malformation seldomly accompanied by aneurysmal deformation of its arterial vasculature. This is a first report of aneurysmal PS presenting with acute aneurysmal rupture. The ruptured aneurysm was treated uneventfully by emergency endovascular coiling, and thoracoscopic hemothorax drainage.
