⚡ TL;DR(Too Long; Didn't Read)

As the patient was asymptomatic and there were no signs of aneurysmatic compression or a left-to-right shunt, and due to the presence of a relatively low gradient (16 mmHg) across the stenotic area, she was scheduled to regular radiologic control.

Abstract

We present a 19-year-old asymptomatic female patient in whom isolated pulmonary supravalvular stenosis and pulmonary artery aneurysm were incidentally detected. On cardiologic examination, a systolic murmur was heard over the lungs, right axis deviation was seen on the electrocardiogram, and marked appearance of the pulmonary artery was noted on the chest X-ray. On transthoracic echocardiography, the pulmonary artery trunk was found to be wider than normal, and there were mild pulmonary and tricuspid regurgitation. Color Doppler examination showed a turbulent flow 2 cm distal to the pulmonary valve. Transesophageal echocardiography showed a supravalvular membranous structure and a proximal pulmonary artery aneurysm. The pulmonary artery trunk was measured as 40 mm at the widest part. Thoracic computed tomography revealed that the proximal pulmonary artery aneurysm was localized to the pulmonary artery trunk and measured 41 mm. As the patient was asymptomatic and there were no signs of aneurysmatic compression or a left-to-right shunt, and due to the presence of a relatively low gradient (16 mmHg) across the stenotic area, she was scheduled to regular radiologic control.

Özet

Bu yazıda, 19 yaşında asemptomatik bir kadın hastada rastlantısal olarak saptanan kapak seviyesi üzeri izole akciğer atardamar darlığı ve akciğer atardamar anevrizması sunuldu. Kardiyolojik değerlendirmede akciğer odağında sistolik üfürüm, elektrokardiyografide sağ eksen sapması ve akciğer grafisinde akciğer atardamarında belirginleşme saptandı. Transtorasik ekokardiyografide akciğer atardamarının gövdesi normalden geniş olarak izlendi; hafif pulmoner yetersizlik ve hafif triküspit yetersizliği gözlendi. Renkli Doppler ile akciğer atardamarı kapağının yaklaşık 2 cm distalinde türbülans akım izlendi. Transözofageal ekokardiyografide kapak üzeri seviyede zarımsı yapı ve darlık sonrası gelişmiş yakınsal (proksimal) anevrizma izlendi. Akciğer atardamarı gövdesi en geniş olduğu yerde 40 mm ölçüldü. Toraks bilgisayarlı tomografisinde yakınsal anevrizmanın akciğer atardamarı gövdesi ile sınırlı olduğu görüldü ve boyutu 41 mm ölçüldü. Hastanın semptomsuz olması, anevrizmanın kitle bası bulgularının bulunmaması, darlık düzeyindeki basınç farkının nispeten düşük olması (16 mmHg) ve soldan sağa şant bulunmaması nedeniyle düzenli olarak radyolojik takibine karar verildi.
