Extralobar sequestration usually presents during the first months or years of life by respiratory distress, cyanosis or infection. Cardiac failure is a rare mode of presentation. If surgery is the usual treatment, radiological endovascular treatment has occasionally been described. We report the case of a newborn who underwent endovascular treatment at 19 days. Clinical status is excellent at 5.5 year follow-up.
