- Abstract
In our case, the presence of disconnected branch pulmonary arteries with left pulmonary artery not connected to main pulmonary artery and patent ductus arteriosus continuing as left pulmonary artery did not allow severe pulmonary regurgitation and right ventricular failure allowing the child to survive. Is an extremely rare condition.1 Fallot-type absent pulmonary valve syndrome is usually associated with agenesis of ductus as patent ductus arteriosus during fetal period is incompatible with life. CT images showing (a and b) disconnected branch pulmonary arteries, patent ductus arteriosus continuing as left pulmonary artery; (c) main pulmonary artery continuing as right pulmonary artery); (d) right bronchial obstruction by aneurysmal right pulmonary artery.
