Unusual Case of Common Arterial Trunk With Atresia of the Right Pulmonary Artery and Aortopulmonary Collaterals

Deborah Kozik et al. World J Pediatr Congenit Heart Surg. 2020 Jul.

Abstract

We describe a two-year-old African girl with late diagnosis of unusual case of common arterial trunk with two separate pulmonary artery branch origins from the ascending aorta, hypoplastic right pulmonary artery that becomes atretic and reconstitutes at hilum, and three aortopulmonary collaterals providing right lung blood supply. She underwent single-stage intracardiac repair and unifocalization of collaterals.
