Acquired pulmonary stenosis is rare. When it occurs, it usually results from compression of the pulmonary artery or the heart by a mediastinal tumour. As these masses rarely cause compression that results in murmurs, it is hard to make a diagnosis. We describe a 23-year-old female patient who presented with dull, aching chest pain lasting for 6 months. Echocardiography showed a large anterior mediastinal cystic mass compressing the main pulmonary artery. She was operated through a left anterolateral thoracotomy and had an uneventful recovery.
获得性肺动脉狭窄较为罕见。当它发生时,通常是由于纵隔肿瘤压迫肺动脉或心脏所致。由于这些肿块很少引起导致杂音的压迫,因此很难做出诊断。我们描述了一位23岁的女性患者,她出现持续6个月的钝痛、胸痛。超声心动图显示一个巨大的前纵隔囊性肿块压迫主肺动脉。她通过左前外侧开胸手术进行了治疗,术后恢复顺利。
