Abstract
Two cases of an aberrant left pulmonary artery in Chinese infants are described. The first patient was diagnosed by an esophagogram and operated upon, but developed post-operative cardiac arrest and died. The second case was diagnosed at necropsy. The clinical and pathological presentation of an aberrant left pulmonary srtery is reviewed. The embryology of the anomalous vessel is discussed.This publication has 16 references indexed in Scilit:
