case_images: A chest X-ray (Figure 1) showed a mild enlarged cardiac silhouette and what was first described as an alveolar-interstitial congestion pattern on the left side.

case_images: A chest high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan revealed hyperlucency and diminished vascularity in the right lower and middle lobe with hyperinflation of the pulmonary parenchyma (Figure 2) which was confirmed by the computed tomography (CT) angiography (Angio-CT) to be a diffuse hypoplasia/agenesis of right superior and inferior branches of the pulmonary artery (Figure 3), compatible with SJMS.
