3D Imaging in Unilateral Primary Pulmonary Hypoplasia in an Adult: A Case Report

Figure 5

Contrast MDCT illustrates the apparent blind-ended hypoplastic left pulmonary artery (black arrow) and the dilated right pulmonary artery (a); coronal reconstruction visualizes the hypoplastic left pulmonary artery (b), and 3D reconstruction in the “transparency” mode (c) demonstrates the main bronchial orientation, the cystic structure of the left lung and the presence of the functional vascular architecture only in the developed lung (white arrow).
