متن کاملSilent Pulmonary Artery Dissection in a patient with old Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Percutaneous pulmonary balloon valvuloplasty (PBV) remains the treatment of choice for pulmonary stenosis (PS). This procedure is effective, safe and gives excellent results. Pulmonary artery (PA) dissection is a rare complication of PBV. This report is a case of an asymptomatic 17-year-old male with a history of PBV due to severe PS dating back to fifteen years ago. During recent echocardiogra...
متن کاملSurgical Techniques for Repair of Peripheral Pulmonary Artery Stenosis.
Peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis is a rare form of congenital heart disease frequently associated with Williams and Alagille syndromes. Patients with this disease typically have systemic level right ventricular pressures secondary to obstruction at the lobar, segmental, and subsegmental branches.

متن کاملSuccessful surgical repair of pulmonary artery aneurysm and regurgitation.
Pulmonary artery aneurysm (PAA) is generally a rare lesion, and there is no definitive approach for it. We report the case of a 45-year-old man who was admitted for the evaluation of dyspnea. In childhood, he had been diagnosed with PAA with congenital pulmonary valve stenosis and regurgitation, and he had a percutaneous transvenous pulmonary valve commissurotomy. Transthoracic echocardiogram s...

Pulmonary artery haemorrhage is thankfully a very rare complication following pulmonary artery catheter insertion. It carries a significant mortality of 50%, and most cases are managed conservatively or with embolization therapy. We present an occult case, in which a patient presented with haemodynamic compromise without haemoptysis or significant haemothorax, who required surgical intervention...
