Unilateral Pulmonary Artery Aplasia in a Pregnant Patient

Abstract EN

Unilateral pulmonary artery aplasia is a rare anomaly.

Case reports of this condition in pregnant patients are even more uncommon and the best approach to management of such patients is still unclear.

We report a patient who presented with a history of dyspnea, chest pain, and hemoptysis.

Imaging established the diagnosis in a newly pregnant female.

Management of the pulmonary artery aplasia patient in pregnancy requires prospective evaluation of pulmonary hypertension.
