When branch stenosis is present at the site of anastomosis, reconstruction of the pulmonary artery is necessary. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

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]

Date: 2004 Abstract: This article presents a patient with tetralogy of Fallot who developed bilateral branch pulmonary artery stenosis following surgical repair that was refractory to balloon dilatation. [um.edu.mt]

• Chest Discomfort

  Patients with severe right ventricular outflow tract obstruction may present with exertional fatigue, dyspnea, lightheadedness, and chest discomfort (right ventricular angina). [fqz301.brinkster.net]

• Accelerated Growth

  Echographically, absolute and relative diameters of LPA and RPA increased whereas the ratio of MPA/aorta did not change suggesting accelerated growth or dilatation of the pulmonary branches. Flow velocities decreased significantly in the branches. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Nasal Flaring

  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]

• Dysphagia

  Although most patients with a true ring and some airway compression present early on in life, others present later on with dysphagia, with others escaping diagnosis forever. LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS ECG. [fqz301.brinkster.net]

• Grunting

  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]

• Right Pleural Effusion

  The patient presented a satisfactory immediate postoperative evolution and was able to extubate herself in the first 48 hr, but was maintained with high volumes of right pleural effusion. [elynsgroup.com]

While angioplasty is a standard treatment option, high rates of restenosis is reported. [omicsonline.org]

Therefore, a high index of suspicion during the initial evaluation of pulmonary hypertension is essential for its prompt diagnosis and adequate treatment. [6] A combination of predominantly left-sided pulmonary vein stenosis (as both the left upper and [jcecho.org]

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]

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 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]

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]
