Pulmonary Artery Agenesis in Young Adult - Two Case Reports
Journal Title: International Journal of Clinical Cardiology - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
A 21-year-old woman presented for a history of exertional dyspnoea and atypical chest pain. No history of allergies or tuberculosis. A chest X-ray showed asymmetry of the chest walls from a reduced expansion of the right lung caused by parenchymal loss and right deviation of the mediastinum and ipsilateral elevation of the diaphragm.
