Unilateral absence of pulmonary artery (UAPA) is a rare congenital anomaly that can present as an isolated lesion or may be associated with other Congenital heart diseases. It is usually detected in infancy or incidentally found on X ray chest in adulthood. The diagnosis of UAPA has rarely been made in a newborn. Only one case has been reported in newborn period from Belgium by F. Marchau who reported the rare occurrence of this anomaly in a 2-day old male baby. We report the rare occurrence of UAPA in a newborn female from India who presented with severe respiratory distress at birth with high cord blood TSH levels. Our case also reflects the importance of a high index of suspicion along with the value of X-ray chest and echocardiogram in the neonatal period in detection of this rare anomaly.

Abstract A fistula between the pulmonary artery and the left atrium is a rare entity and its diagnosis is uncommon in the neonatal period. There are more reported surgical treatments in the literature than with a transcatheter closure. We report the case of a prenatal diagnosis of a large fistula between the right pulmonary artery and the left atrium with successful transcatheter closure with an Amplatzer duct occluder II 6/4 mm.

Introduction. Unilateral absence of pulmonary artery is a rare vascular malformation. Because of this anomaly, the lungs are supplied by the system of collateral arteries. Case outline. We present a case of the right pulmonary artery agenesis in a female patient. She was admitted to the hospital because of hemoptysis. A computed tomography scan revealed a congenital malformation ? the right lung was smaller in size, the right principal pulmonary artery had not been developed along with aberrant tortuous blood vessels. Conclusion. Symptomatic therapy was applied in the case of our patient. There was no need for any surgical treatment. However, in case of massive hemoptysis embolisation or lobectomy/ pneumonectomy will probably be applied.

Anomalous origin of the right pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta (AORPA), sometimes referred to as hemitruncus, is a rare malformation. We report a unique case of AORPA associated with Ebstein's anomaly and with congenital tracheal stenosis due to complete tracheal rings. The AORPA and tracheal stenosis were both successfully corrected in the neonatal period.
