Atresia of Right Pulmonary Veins with Intact Atrial Septum and Major Aorto‐Pulmonary Collateral Treated with Percutaneous Stent Implantation and Embolization

Atresia of Right Pulmonary Veins with Intact Atrial Septum and Major Aorto‐Pulmonary Collateral... Unilateral pulmonary vein (PV) atresia is a rare congenital cardiac malformation with evolution toward irreversible pulmonary hypertension. Pneumonectomy or lung transplant is currently the treatment of choice for such a disease. We describe an unusual case of right PV atresia and major aorto‐pulmonary collaterals treated with percutaneous angioplasty, stent implantation, and aorto‐pulmonary collateral embolization.

Abstract

Unilateral pulmonary vein (PV) atresia is a rare congenital cardiac malformation with evolution toward irreversible pulmonary hypertension. Pneumonectomy or lung transplant is currently the treatment of choice for such a disease. We describe an unusual case of right PV atresia and major aorto‐pulmonary collaterals treated with percutaneous angioplasty, stent implantation, and aorto‐pulmonary collateral embolization.
