It is characterized by hypoplasia and/or agenesis of the pulmonary arteries resulting in hypoperfusion of the lung and unilateral hyperlucency on chest radiography .

Symptoms of decreased exercise tolerance, cough ,dyspnoea, and may be confused with onchial asthma ,pulmonary embolism or onchiactasis .
