Abstract
We report a patient with multiple congenital pulmonary anomalies, including unilateral pulmonary artery agenesis with an atretic left lung, "buffalo chest," and a variant of the anatomic anomaly "horseshoe lung," discovered during double lung transplantation. Both hemithoraces were filled by the right lung. The right chest was occupied primarily by the anatomic right lower lobe, and the left chest by the right middle lobe at the apex and the anatomic right upper lobe at the base.
