title: Maldevelopment of conotruncal and aorto-pulmonary septum with absent left central pulmonary artery: anatomical and clinical implications.
abstract: In a patient with pulmonary valve atresia with hypoplastic main pulmonary artery selective angiography showed absence of the central left pulmonary artery and a right pulmonary artery originating from the ascending aorta close to the left coronary artery. This unusual anatomical arrangement complicates interventional and surgical treatment.
