Low Pressure Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm with Atrial Septal Defect
Pulmonary artery (PA) aneurysm is a rare finding in the thoracic cavity, accompanied by pulmonary hypertension. Clinical presentation of PA aneurysms is usually asymptomatic. The guideline for PA aneurysm treatment is unclear. We report an unusual case of low pressure PA aneurysm associated with atrial septal defect in a 69-year-old man.
متن کاملIntegrated Percutaneous Atrial Septal Defect Occlusion and Pulmonary Balloon Valvuloplasty
Introduction: Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) is one of the most common congenital heart diseases during childhood. Today, ASD closure is done by occlutech device via cardiac catheterization. ASD repair with transcatheter technique has shown high closure rate. However, coexistence of severe pulmonary stenosis and large defect in atrial septum is rare. When these two problems coexist, the result is i...
متن کاملPulmonary artery thrombi detected by echocardiography in patients with pulmonary hypertension secondary to atrial septal defect.
This report presents three patients with severe pulmonary hypertension secondary to atrial septal defect associated with thrombus and spontaneous echo contrast within the pulmonary artery diagnosed by transthoracic and transoesophageal echocardiography. Clinical and echocardiographic features seem to suggest local thrombus formation within the pulmonary arteries as a direct consequence of pulmo...
متن کاملPeripheral pulmonary artery murmur of atrial septal defect.
Extracardiac murmurs originating in vessels either within the thoracic cavity or in the chest wall can be sought by applying clinical auscultation to non-precordial sites, i.e. right anterior chest, axillh, and back. Recognized causes of such murmurs include branch stenosis of the pulmonary arteries (D'Cruz et al., 1964), coarctation of the aorta (Spencer, Johnston, and Meredith, 1958), bronchi...
متن کاملAtrial septal defect with right to left shunt despite normal pulmonary artery pressure.
A 74 year old woman had right to left shunting through an atrial septal defect despite normal right heart pressures. Acute volume expansion temporarily reduced the shunt. Contrast echocardiography and angiography demonstrated that this shunting occurred almost exclusively from the inferior vena cava. At surgery a redundant flap of septum secundum was found that was adjacent to the inferior vena...
