Pulmonary Atresia

 Pulmonary atresia is a heart defect present at birth (congenital) that's normally diagnosed within the first few hours or days of life. In pulmonary atresia, the valve that lets blood out of the heart to go to your baby's lungs doesn't form correctly. Instead of opening and closing to allow blood to travel from your heart to your lungs, a solid sheet of tissue forms. Blood from the right side of your baby's heart can't go back to the lungs to pick up oxygen.Pulmonary atresia may occur with or without a ventricular septal defect (VSD).

Muscular obliteration of the apical trabecular cavity and in some cases its infundibulum, resulted in "bipartite" right ventricle (RV) in 33.6%, and a "unipartite" chamber in 7.7%. The remaining 58.7% had "tripartite" morphology.
