Subjects and methods: A retrospective and prospective descriptive study on all patients with pulmonary agenesis and hypoplasia admitted to Respiratory Department, National Pediatric Hospital from January 2011 to December 2016. Results and conclusion: In the 6-year-period study, there were a total of 21 patients with pulmonary agenesis and hypoplasia () admitted to Respiratory Department. 14 of them had pulmonary agenesis and 6 had pulmonary hypoplasia. 80% of patients were younger than 6 months old, the earliest diagnosis was during the fetal period whereas the latest was a 12-year-old patient and high female-to-male ratio. The most common signs and symptoms were coughing, wheezing, dyspnea, decreased vesicular breath sound and recurrent pneumonia. Radiologic imaging: Hemithorax white-out, unilateral pulmonary artery agenesis or pulmonary artery atresia. * Keywords: Pulmonary agenesis; Pulmonary hypoplasia; Children.
