We report a case of origin of the right pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta. Pulmonary arteriography showed an opacification of the enlarged left pulmonary artery without filling of the right pulmonary artery. Pressure study showed that the pulmonary systolic pressure was almost equal to the systemic pressure. The present case is characterized as the longest-term survivor in the literature with aortic origin of right pulmonary artery without receiving surgical repair.
我们报告一例右肺动脉起源于升主动脉的病例。肺动脉造影显示左肺动脉增粗且显影，但右肺动脉未显影。压力研究表明肺动脉收缩压几乎与体循环压力相等。该病例是文献中报道的右肺动脉起源于主动脉且未接受手术修复的存活时间最长的患者。
