چکیده
Bronchial compression due to pulmonary artery dilation is an important problem in infants with congenital heart disease, and can complicate the postoperative course. In recent years, airway stenting has become a popular treatment for these cases. We achieved success with endobronchial stenting in a two-month-old infant with bronchial compression caused by a dilated pulmonary artery.

Outcomes of Pulmonary Valve Replacement for Correction Pulmonary Insufficiency after Primary Repair of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF)
Background Total correction of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) anomaly in early childhood has been practiced in many centers with good results, but in some of patients after few years sever Pulmonary valve insufficiency occurred. Materials and Methods At a cross- sectional study from January 2015 to January 2016, 10 patients who had history of primary repair of TOF with free pulmonary insufficiency (...
متن کاملFetal cardiac morphology of tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve in the rat.
Fetal in situ cardiovascular and bronchial morphologies were studied in rats with tetralogy of Fallot and absent pulmonary valve to clarify the prenatal pathology of this complex. There were 42 fetal rats with this complex among 300 fetuses treated with N,N'-bis-(dichloroacetyl)-1,8-octamethylenediamine (bis-diamine) (200 mg) on the 10th day of pregnancy. After undergoing rapid whole-body freez...
متن کاملRight ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...

Objective: The intermediate results achieved with a new technique for primary repair of tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve syndrome are reported. Method: Apart from correction of tetralogy of Fallot, this approach includes translocation of the pulmonary artery anterior to the aorta and away from the tracheobronchial tree. Since November 1998 this technique has been employed in thre...

A 6-month-old female infant was transferred because of respiratory distress. A chest radiograph demonstrated a well delineated, huge mass on the upper and middle part of the right lung (Fig. 1). Twodimensional echocardiography showed dilatation of the right ventricle, main pulmonary artery (20 mm, z score +4.4) and right pulmonary artery (22 mm, z score +7.8) but dilatation of the left pulmonar...
