Deskripsi
A case of right sided pulmonary hypoplasia is described. A 20 years male was admitted in our department with complaints of recurrent chest infections since childhood. Clinical examination revealed smaller right hemithorax. Serial chest X- rays showed nonprogressive lesions over several years. Bronchoscopy and CT scan thorax confirmed the diagnosis of right sided pulmonary hypoplasia. It was not associated with any other developmental anomaly.
