“…As the lungs develop, they are exclusively supplied by the central pulmonary arteries (mediastinal main pulmonary artery, right pulmonary artery, and left pulmonary artery) derived from the sixth branchial arches. However, if the pulmonary arteries are not well developed, the ductus arteriosus and segmental arteries from the aorta persist to compensate the pulmonary blood flow, as depicted in Figure 3 (12,13). There are variations in the number, origin, course, branching patterns, and anastomoses of MAPCAs with other pulmonary arteries (such as in Fig 4 with central, lobar, and segmental pulmonary arteries), which may have stenosis at multiple locations for variable lengths (4).…”
