A 79-year-old woman presented with a systolic murmur and dyspnea on exertion. Transthoracic echocardiography and multidetector-row computed tomography revealed a giant aneurysm in an abnormal vessel known as Vieussens' arterial ring (VAR). A pulmonary artery VAR fistula was also observed. Cardiac catheterization revealed a high pulmonary-to-systemic flow ratio (Qp/Qs = 2.1). We ligated the VAR, resected the aneurysm, and closed the fistula using a bovine pericardial patch. The patient's postoperative clinical course was uneventful.
一名79岁女性因收缩期杂音和劳力性呼吸困难就诊。经胸超声心动图和多排螺旋计算机断层扫描显示,在一个名为维厄桑斯动脉环(VAR)的异常血管中存在巨大动脉瘤。还观察到肺动脉VAR瘘。心导管检查显示肺循环与体循环血流量比值较高(Qp/Qs = 2.1)。我们结扎了VAR,切除了动脉瘤,并使用牛心包补片封闭了瘘口。患者术后临床过程平稳。
