1 Unilateral Absence of the Left Pulmonary Artery Accompanied by Right Lung Cancer 
Masaoki Ito, MD, Yoshinori Yamashita, MD, PhD, Hiroaki Harada, MD, Ken-ichi Omori, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 90, Issue 1, Pages e6-e8 (July 2010) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2010 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Computed tomographic (CT) scan shows the pulmonary nodule and hematoxylin and eosin stained histology of the lung and stomach tumors. (A) The CT scan shows a solitary nodule in the middle lobe of the right lung. (B) Histology of the lung tumor indicates adenocarcinoma growing along the bronchial structures. The tumor is accompanied by adenomatous hyperplasia and focal collapse (Noguchi B). (Hematoxylin and eosin; ×200.) (C) Histologic finding of the stomach tumor represents adenocarcinoma with focal submucosal invasion. The tumor does not invade beyond the submucosal layer. (Hematoxylin and eosin; ×200.)

3 Fig 2 Images of the newly found pulmonary lesion and representative findings of unilateral absence of a pulmonary artery. (A) The new tumor in the lower lobe of the lung was located near the upper bronchial trunk and hilar vessels. (B) Pulmonary arteriography revealed an interruption of the left pulmonary artery.
