Abstract

SOTO-RAMOS, Mario et al. Agenesis of right pulmonary artery. Neumol. cir. torax [online]. 2020, vol.79, n.3, pp.180-184.  Epub Feb 28, 2022. ISSN 0028-3746.

Among arteriovenous malformations, unilateral agenesis of a pulmonary artery (UPAA) is definitely considered one of the rarest, with few cases described in the literature, and its number decreasing in pediatric cases. The case of a female infant with a history of wet cough and episodes of hemoptysis is presented, which leads to performing a contrast-enhanced TACAR and diagnosing agenesis of the pulmonary artery.

Keywords : Arteriovenous malformations; hemoptysis; agenesis of pulmonary artery.
