| Summary: | ABSTRACT Introduction Early intervention in patients with congenitally disconnected pulmonary artery improves long‐term outcome. Case presentation We present 3 cases of isolated disconnected pulmonary artery in the absence of associated structural heart disease during a period of 3 years.
