Presentation
Top ↑ Case Presentation We present the case of a patient with double discordance, left atrioventricular valve atresia, restrictive bulboventricular foramen and hypoplastic right ventricle (HRV). [elynsgroup.com]
When branch stenosis is present at the site of anastomosis, reconstruction of the pulmonary artery is necessary. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
When hepatic failure and/or cardiac lesions are present, mortality risk is increased. The documents contained in this web site are presented for information purposes only. [orpha.net]
The severity of disease will determine when the patient presents clinically. Mild pulmonic stenosis will be asymptomatic, and will present at routine physical examination with a systolic ejection murmur. [clinicaladvisor.com]
Present On Admission POA Help "Present On Admission" is defined as present at the time the order for inpatient admission occurs — conditions that develop during an outpatient encounter, including emergency department, observation, or outpatient surgery [icd10data.com]
Respiratoric
- Respiratory Distress
Respiratory distress (defined as the presence of at least two of the five following clinical signs: tachypnoea > 60/min, grunting, subcostal or intercostal retractions, nasal flaring, Sa o 2 A total of 346 echocardiograms were performed, a median of seven [fn.bmj.com]
Cardiovascular
- Cyanosis
Closure of ASD or PFO, especially if there is persistent cyanosis or paradoxical embolus. [cachnet.org]
If the condition is severe, symptoms may include: Episodes of pain in the chest causing difficulty breathing Low energy Poor feeding Rapid breathing Tiring early with exercise Turning blue, a condition called cyanosis Because there may be no obvious symptoms [ucsfbenioffchildrens.org]
With severe PS and decreased right ventricular chamber compliance, cyanosis can occur from right-to-left shunting if a concomitant patent foramen ovale, atrial septal defect, or ventricular septal defect is present. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Critical pulmonary stenosis in the newborn can cause blueness of the lips (a condition called cyanosis) and/or congestive heart failure. Physical findings: The diagnosis is most often made due to the presence of a heart murmur. [mottchildren.org]
- Systolic Murmur
Abstract Transient systolic murmurs in neonates and premature infants due to mild left (LPA) and right (RPA) pulmonary branch stenosis is recognized but follow up studies are lacking. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This difference is highly significant (p RELIABILITY OF A MURMUR IN THE PRESENCE OF PBS The correlation between a systolic murmur and the presence of PBS was tested in all measurements with the ductus arteriosus closed (n = 253). [fn.bmj.com]
Functional or physiologic PPS is a common cause of a systolic murmur in infants. It occurs in both premature and full-term infants; with time, the pulmonary artery grows, and the murmur usually disappears within a few months. [emedicine.medscape.com]

- Ejection Murmur
A systolic ejection murmur of Grade 3/6 intensity was audible in left second intercostal space. Another peculiar finding was a continuous murmur in the back and both axilla. [jcecho.org]
Mild pulmonic stenosis will be asymptomatic, and will present at routine physical examination with a systolic ejection murmur. [clinicaladvisor.com]
An ejection systolic murmur heard at the upper left sternal border and well transmitted to the axillae and back is most common. There is no pulmonary ejection click. [fqz301.brinkster.net]
Atrial septal defect : Presence of systolic ejection murmur, wide fixed split S2, EKG showing RVH. In ASD the split of the S2 is fixed, there is no ejection click. [wikidoc.org]

Workup
Hypertrophy
- Ventricular Hypertrophy
Possible outcomes include the development of right ventricular hypertrophy, right ventricular dilation and failure, the development of cyanosis (if an atrial communication is present), exercise intolerance, and reduced cardiac output. [clinicaladvisor.com]
Can have a normal heart size or may show evidence of right ventricular hypertrophy. May also show evidence of a dilated pulmonary trunk or a main pulmonary artery. Pulmonary vascularity is often normal in mild cases. [radiopaedia.org]
Concentric ventricular hypertrophy occurs in response to pressure overload. [pedsinreview.aappublications.org]
If the stenosis is more severe, right ventricular hypertrophy will be seen. [fqz301.brinkster.net]
With severe valvular PS, subvalvular right ventricular hypertrophy can cause infundibular narrowing and contribute to the right ventricular outflow obstruction. This often regresses after correction of valvular stenosis. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Treatment
The risks of treatment, as outlined earlier in the section, are typically minimal, and patients are usually able to have a full recovery from the treatment. [clinicaladvisor.com]
What is the treatment? Treatment is only needed when the narrowing is of a sufficient severity to be a concern. Some people with only mild or moderate narrowing never need any treatment. [childrensheartcentre.com]

Treatment options for pulmonary stenosis include open-heart surgery or balloon angioplasty. The primary indication for treatment is the degree of narrowing and treatment is timed to prevent damage to the right heart. [mottchildren.org]
Signs and Symptoms Diagnosis Treatment Children and adults with mild pulmonary artery stenosis often don't have symptoms. The first sign of the condition often is a heart murmur, an extra sound heard during a chest examination. [ucsfbenioffchildrens.org]
Prognosis
Prognosis The prognosis is usually favorable, but complications such as cirrhosis, variceal hemorrhage, refractory ascites, and spontaneous bacterial peritonitis may occur. The disease usually stabilizes between ages 4 and 10 years. [orpha.net]
What is the prognosis? The prognosis for this condition is generally good, with survival without complications nearly 100%. In the long term, these children fare well and most have no symptoms and lead normal lives. [childrensheartcentre.com]
Mild-pulmonic stenosis has a generally favorable prognosis. Many times, the stenosis will improve or go away completely over the first few years of life. [clinicaladvisor.com]
Prognosis and Management Benign type generally disappears before one year of age. [pedclerk.bsd.uchicago.edu]
This is particularly true in patients with associated syndromes, such as Williams, Noonan, or congenital rubella However, multiple peripheral pulmonary stenosis of severe degree may be progressive, and the prognosis is poor unless angioplasty, stent [slideshare.net]
Etiology
Etiology AGS is most commonly due to JAG1 (20p12) gene mutations (AGS type 1), encoding a Notch signaling pathway ligand. AGS type 2 is due to NOTCH2 gene mutations (1p12). [orpha.net]

ETIOLOGY Rubella Syndrome. The most important cause of significant pulmonary artery stenoses producing symptoms in newborns used to be intrauterine rubella infection. [fqz301.brinkster.net]
Epidemiology
Summary Epidemiology The prevalence is approximately 1/70,000. Clinical description The disease may manifest in newborns by prolonged jaundice due to conjugated hyperbilirubinemia, and/or cardiac signs and symptoms. [orpha.net]
Genetics These are a common genetic disorders associated with pulmonic stenosis: [9] Associated conditions A rare association of pulmonic stenosis with an unrepaired ASD is reported. [19] Epidemiology and Demographics Pulmonary stenosis accounts for 8% [wikidoc.org]
Pathophysiology
We aimed to improve understanding of the nature and possible clinical implications of this pathophysiological finding. [jcmr-online.biomedcentral.com]
Pathophysiology A systolic pressure gradient between the pumping chamber and its downstream artery is the primary hemodynamic abnormality of stenosis regardless of whether the obstruction is right- or left-sided. [pedsinreview.aappublications.org]

Prevention & Risk Assessment Prevention & Risk Assessment What causes pulmonary stenosis? Congenital pulmonary stenosis occurs due to improper development of the pulmonary valve in the first eight weeks of fetal growth. [childrensnational.org]
It most commonly occurs after a dental or other medical procedure and can usually be prevented by a dose of antibiotic prior to the procedure. [mottchildren.org]
How can pulmonic stenosis be prevented? Currently there is no way to prevent pulmonic stenosis. Copyright © 2017, 2013 Decision Support in Medicine, LLC. All rights reserved. [clinicaladvisor.com]
A child with peripheral pulmonary stenosis may also need to periodically take antibiotics in order to prevent an infection called bacterial endocarditis. [medicina-interventionala.ro]
