Abstract
- Unilateral absence of pulmonary artery(UAPA) is a rare disease. We experienced 2 cases of UAPA in 5 month-old male patient and 16 year-old female patient with the chief complaint of dyspnea. Lung perfusion scan, cardiac catheterization with pulmonary and aortic angiography confirmed the diagnosis of UAPA.
