“…In the latter, although a rare case, part of the left pulmonary artery branches originates from the right pulmonary artery while the left pulmonary artery trunk and other branches remain normal in origin and course. A previous study reported a case of partial PAS in children ( 19 ), and the current study found 13 complete PAS cases. PAS is often complicated with segmental or extensive tracheal stenosis and tracheomalacia ( 20 , 21 ), resulting in symptoms such as stridor, breath shortness, and recurrent lung infections.…”

ObjectivesThis study aims to investigate the efficacy of prenatal ultrasonography in diagnosing the anomalous origin of the fetal pulmonary artery (AOFPA).MethodsA total of 26 AOFPA cases were retrospectively analyzed from January 2014 to January 2023. The features of the AOFPA were characterized by comparing the prenatal ultrasonic data with the results of anatomical casting after pregnancy termination or postnatal imaging and surgical intervention. Missed diagnoses and misdiagnoses were expounded.ResultsOf the 26 AOFPA cases, there were 13 cases of pulmonary artery sling, 8 cases of anomalous origin of the unilateral pulmonary artery, and five cases of unilateral absence of the pulmonary artery; 17 cases received pathological anatomy and casting after pregnancy termination, and nine cases were confirmed by postnatal imaging and surgery. Nineteen cases were accurately prenatally diagnosed (19/26, 73.1%), and seven cases were missed or misdiagnosed (7/26, 26.9%).ConclusionsPrenatal ultrasonography has a favorable diagnostic efficacy for anomalous origin of the fetal pulmonary artery. The absence of either the left or right pulmonary artery from the image of pulmonary artery bifurcation may indicate origin abnormalities of the pulmonary artery in fetuses, which signifies the necessity to detect the abnormal origin of the pulmonary artery on the affected side and other potential intracardiac malformation complications.

The aim of this study was to investigate the features of partial anomalous left pulmonary artery (PALPA) and differences between cases with posterior versus anterior a nomalous vessels in relation to the tracheobronchial tree. We hypothesized that statistical significance was dependent on the course of the anomalous vessel due to airway compression in the posterior type. This study included cases obtained from the literature (n = 33) and an institution teaching file (n = 2). Information collected: age, sex, medical history, additional anomalies, anomalous vessel course, and respiratory symptoms. Data were analyzed with independent samples t-test and Fisher’s exact test. PALPAs were more commonly anterior than posterior. Mean age: 5.3 years (SD = 12.4) for anterior and 6.8 years (SD = 18.5) for posterior (p = 0.77). Respiratory symptoms: 20% of anterior and 60% of posterior cases (p = 0.032). Tracheobronchial anomalies: 35% of anterior and 60% of posterior cases (p = 0.182). Non-cardiac and non-tracheobronchial anomalies: 30% of anterior and 47% of posterior cases (p = 0.511). Kabuki syndrome: 25% of anterior and 6.7% of posterior cases (p = 0.207). In conclusion, respiratory symptoms were the only significant difference between anterior and posterior PALPA types.
