Abstract

Agenesis of the lung is an extremely rare congenital anomaly representing failure of development of the primitive lung bud. Here we are presenting a case of left lung agenesis with bicuspid aortic valve in a 17 year old girl who came with the complaints of backache only. The diagnosis was made on the basis of CECT and 2D Echocardiography.
