Abstract:
Anomalous origin of one pulmonary artery branch from the aorta (AOPA) is a rare congenital heart disease(CHD) characterized by the anomalous origin of one pulmonary artery branch from aorta, while another pulmonary artery normally arising from main pulmonary artery. AOPA has different pathological patterns. Two case reports were published in this issue, the authors illustrated characteristics of prenatal ultrasound diagnosis, postnatal imaging diagnosis and surgical outcomes of different types of AOPA. This review has revisited prenatal ultrasound diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of AOPA, aiming to improve the comprehensive understanding of this rare CHD, and provides reference information for accurate diagnosis and integrated prenatal and post-natal management of AOPA.
