Abstract
Hypogenetic lung syndrome, commonly known as Scimitar syndrome, is a rare cardiopulmonary anomaly characterized primarily by anomalous pulmonary venous return and lung hypoplasia. While it is most frequently diagnosed in infancy or early childhood, cases in adulthood are exceedingly rare. We present a case of a middle-aged female who was diagnosed with Scimitar syndrome.
