We present a case of a patient with stenosis of the pulmonary artery which was successfully treated by implantation of a vascular endoprosthesis. A 50-year-old man underwent left pneumonectomy for lung cancer. Eleven months later, a computed tomographic scan revealed a soft tissue mass in the mediastinum and there was severe stenosis of the remaining right main pulmonary artery. A self-expandable vascular endoprosthesis was implanted in the stenotic portion. We used percutaneous cardiopulmonary support (PCPS) during the procedure. We recommend the technique of pulmonary artery stenting using PCPS as efficacious and safe.
我们报告一例肺动脉狭窄患者，通过植入血管内支架成功治愈。一名50岁男性因肺癌接受了左肺切除术。11个月后，计算机断层扫描显示纵隔有一软组织肿块，剩余的右主肺动脉存在严重狭窄。在狭窄部位植入了一个自膨胀式血管内支架。手术过程中我们使用了经皮心肺支持（PCPS）。我们推荐使用PCPS进行肺动脉支架置入术，因为该技术有效且安全。
