Swyer James Macleod Syndrome, also known as unilateral hyperlucent lung syndrome, is a rare lung condition characterized by the underdevelopment of one lung. This syndrome typically occurs in childhood and is often discovered incidentally during imaging studies for unrelated conditions.Individuals with Swyer James Macleod Syndrome may experience symptoms such as recurrent respiratory infections, shortness of breath, and decreased exercise tolerance. Diagnosis is typically made through imaging studies such as chest X-rays,computed tomography or ventilation-perfusion scans.
