In this letter, we propose a symbol-wise puncturing scheme to support hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) integrated probabilistic amplitude shaping (PAS). To prevent the probability distribution distortion caused by the traditional sequential puncturing and realize the promised gain of PAS, we perform symbol-wise puncturing on the label sequence of the shaped modulation symbols. Our simulation results indicate that the proposed puncturing scheme achieves a stable shaping gain across the signal-to-noise ratio of at least 0.6 dB compared with the uniform case under the same throughput, while the gain of sequential puncturing drops rapidly with retransmissions. Moreover, in each transmission, the proposed scheme is able to reduce the distribution distortion that achieves over 1.2 dB gain at a block error rate (BLER) of ${10^{-3}}$. In contrast, for sequential puncturing, the distribution is severely distorted and the BLER performance is even worse than that of the uniform case in retransmissions.
