Abstract
Absent pulmonary valve syndrome (APVS) is a rare anomaly characterized by the absence of the pulmonary valve. The absence of the pulmonary valve, along with the hypoplasia of the pulmonary annulus, leads to aneurysmal dilatation of the pulmonary artery and its branches. Other consequences include pulmonary stenosis and pulmonary insufficiency (1).
