Right Sub-axillary Incision for Right Pulmonary Vein Atresia in a Child: A Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract

Unilateral pulmonary vein atresia (UPVA) in children is a rare disease that is characterized by a recurrent pulmonary infection and hemoptysis in childhood. This paper is a report of a case of pulmonary venous atresia treated by a right sub-axillary incision. Hopefully, more literature can be produced to improve the awareness and treatment level of pulmonary vein atresia.
