Association of PET-measured myocardial flow reserve with echocardiography-estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

, 2019
BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a known complication of HCM and is a strong predictor of mortality. We aim to investigate the relationship between microvascular dysfunction measured by quantitative PET and PH in HCM patients.MethodsEighty-nine ...

Pulmonary artery size as a predictor of outcomes in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

European Respiratory Journal, 2016
IPF patients have heightened propensity for pulmonary hypertension, which portends a worse outcome. Presence of pulmonary hypertension may be reflected in an enlarged pulmonary artery.

A rare case of pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect with right-sided aortic arch

Radiology Case Reports, 2023
Pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect is a congenital heart malformation in which a lack of continuity between ventricles and the pulmonary artery is accompanied by ventricular septal defect.

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2008
Significant advances in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) have occurred over the last 10 years, starting with the approval of epoprostenol in 1998. Subsequently, multiple additional medications have received approval, including a subcutaneous prostacyclin, an inhaled prostacyclin, and oral medications in 2 separate classes.

Transthoracic Pulmonary Artery Denervation for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2019
Objective— Pulmonary arterial hypertension is characterized by progressive pulmonary vascular remodeling and persistently elevated mean pulmonary artery pressures and pulmonary vascular resistance. We aimed to investigate whether transthoracic pulmonary artery denervation (TPADN) attenuated pulmonary artery (PA) remodeling ...

Pseudotumors due to pulmonary infarction [PDF]

, 1963
The preferred treatment of pulmonary infarction is nonoperative when the diagnosis can be established. In the present study, five cases are described in which failure of resolution or growth of a radiographic density resulted in eventual thoracotomy and ...

Chemerin Added to Endothelin-1 Promotes Rat Pulmonary Artery Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation and Migration

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
BackgroundWhile chemerin has been shown to increase proliferation and migration of systemic vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) contributing therefore to the development of hypertension, this remains to be clarified for the pulmonary circulation ...

Three-dimensional echocardiography and 2D-3D speckle tracking imaging in chronic pulmonary hypertension. diagnostic accuracy in detecting hemodynamic signs of RV failure [PDF]

, 2015
Background and objective. Our aim was to compare three-dimensional (3D) and 2D and 3D speckle tracking (2D-STE, 3D-STE) echocardiographic parameters with conventional right ventricular (RV) indexes in patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension (PH ...

Transcatheter embolization of a Rasmussen aneurysm via pulmonary artery with n-butyl cyanoacrylate and iodized oil mixture injection with balloon occlusion

Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2016
We describe a new approach to effective embolization of Rasmussen aneurysm by simultaneous devascularization of the pseudoaneurysm and systemic artery-to-pulmonary artery anastomoses.

Fetal heterotaxy with tricuspid atresia, pulmonary atresia, and isomerism of the right atrial appendages at 22 weeks. [PDF]

, 2013
We report the accurate prenatal diagnosis at 22 weeks gestation of right atrial isomerism in association with tricuspid atresia. Several distinctive sonographic features of isomerism of the right atrial appendages were present in this fetus: complex ...
