The affected lung and its associated airways are often hypoplastic. In addition, aortopulmonary collateral vessels may be involved on the affected side, causing sequestration of that side; such involvement is commonly associated with cardiac defects. We report a case of infantile scimitar syndrome that involved a typical association with the right lung, but with extremely unusual associations with congenital hydrocephalus and heart blockage. The presentation of this case and the role of different diagnostic approaches and management are discussed. ER -
