Abstract

We present a case of dichorionic-diamniotic twin females who developed hypoxemic respiratory failure. They were ultimately diagnosed by lung biopsy with alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins. This case highlights a practical approach to reaching a diagnosis in infants with suspected developmental lung disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
