Three patients with Eisenmenger's syndrome with haemoptysis are reported who underwent computed tomography pulmonary angiography and cardiovascular magnetic resonance. Each patient was fou...
متن کاملPulmonary hypertension associated with necrotizing pulmonary arteritis.
Necrotizing arteritis limited to the pulmonary arteries has been described occasionally as a complication of mitral stenosis (Parker and Weiss, 1936), of Eisenmenger's complex (Old and Russell, 1947), and in patients dying with right heart failure of uncertain causation (McKeown, 1952). One such case in this last category, in which cardiac catheterization gave clear evidence of pulmonary hypert...
متن کاملGiant Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm Secondary To Patent Ductus Arteriosus: A Case Report
Aneurysms involving the main pulmonary artery and its branches are rare. Clinical experience is limited, and their management is not well established. We present the case of a 35-year-old male patient with dyspnea and hemoptysis in whom subsequent imaging studies revealed a giant pulmonary artery aneurysm associated with an uncorrected patent ductus arteriosus and Eisenmenger's syndrome. We cho...
