A patient with main pulmonary artery mass may have severe symptoms and warrants urgent surgical management, whereas in a stable patient with a diagnosis amenable to medical treatment, medical management should be started while monitoring the size of the lesion. We report a case in which the patient experienced severe right heart dysfunction due to obstruction of the main pulmonary artery, diagnosed as a probable thrombus, and the patient was taken for urgent surgical excision, later diagnosed as tuberculoma on histopathologic examination.
一位患有主肺动脉肿块的患者可能会有严重的症状，需要紧急手术治疗，而对于诊断为可接受药物治疗且病情稳定的患者，应在开始药物治疗的同时监测病变大小。我们报告了一例因主肺动脉阻塞而导致严重右心功能障碍的患者，诊断为可能的血栓，患者被紧急手术切除，随后在组织病理学检查中诊断为结核瘤。
