In this article, we describe a newborn with Prune belly syndrome
who presented with left ventricular dilation due to an extensive
intralobar sequestration of the left lung. Pulmonary sequestration
was combined with congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation
and also had coarctation of the aorta. Percutaneous closure of
the anomalous aberrant artery feeding the sequestrated lung and
balloon angioplasty for coarctation resulted in prompt regression
of the left ventricular enlargement in the catheterization lab.
