Abstract

We describe two patients, aged seven and 21 years, with unilateral atresia of a solitary pulmonary vein. Until now, to the best or our knowledge, this condition has been reported only twice. Although symptoms, diagnostic measures and treatment have been described in detail, clinical diagnosis is still difficult.
