We report a direct main pulmonary artery (MPA) to left atrium (LA) communication in a 21-month-old infant which is closed by transcatheter approach using a muscular VSD occluder. We explain the characteristic diagnostic clues of this anomaly on chest radiography, echocardiography and angiography. To our knowledge this is the first case of congenital MPA to LA communication effectively occluded by a VSD muscular occluder.
我们报告了一例 21 个月大婴儿的直接主肺动脉(MPA)至左心房(LA)交通,通过经导管途径使用肌部室间隔缺损封堵器进行了闭合。我们解释了这种异常在胸部 X 线摄影、超声心动图和血管造影上的特征性诊断线索。据我们所知,这是首例通过 VSD 肌部封堵器有效封堵的先天性 MPA 至 LA 交通的病例。
