On further work-up, it was found in contrast-enhanced CT scan that there is presence of intralobar sequestration with concomitant abscess formation. Patient subsequently underwent thoracotomy and left lower lobectomy. Histopathology findings revealed interstitial pneumonia with caseating granulomatous inflammation with thrombus formation and necrosis. Hence, patient was started on anti-tuberculosis medications.
