Isolated unilateral absence of pulmonary artery (UAPA) is a rare congenital malformation. We describe a 26-year-old woman with isolated UAPA who presented with hemoptysis. Since massive hemoptysis may mandate selective embolization of collaterals or surgical treatment, early diagnosis of UAPA is pivotal.
孤立性单侧肺动脉缺如(UAPA)是一种罕见的先天性畸形。我们描述了一名患有孤立性UAPA且出现咯血的26岁女性。由于大量咯血可能需要对侧支血管进行选择性栓塞或手术治疗,因此UAPA的早期诊断至关重要。
