Abstract

A term newborn presented with total right and partial left lung agenesis associated with total anomalous obstructed left pulmonary venous drainage. This unique association with a dramatic prognosis is thought to be due to a developmental insult early in the embryonic formation of the lung and its supporting vasculature.
