ABSTRACT

Relatamos o caso de um adolescente encaminhado com o diagnóstico de hipertensão pulmonar. A investigação não invasiva detectou comunicação interatrial seio venoso com sinais de hipertensão pulmonar. No estudo hemodinâmico o diagnóstico foi confirmado, sendo também notada compressão esquerda pelo tronco pulmonar. O paciente foi submetido à oclusão cirúrgica da comunicação interatrial e à plastia redutora do tronco pulmonar. Dois anos após o procedimento, o paciente encontra-se bem, com sinais clínicos e ecocardiográficos de hipertensão pulmonar discreta e sem evidências, também pelo ecocardiograma, de obstrução do tronco da artéria coronária esquerda.


We report the case of an adolescent referred with initial diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension. Non-invasive investigation disclosed a sinus venous atrial septal defect with pulmonary hypertension. The hemodynamic study confirmed diagnosis, and also showed extrinsic compression of left main coronary artery by pulmonary trunk. Surgical closure of the defect in addition to pulmonary trunk plasty were undertaken. Two years after the surgery the patient is well, with clinical signs of mild pulmonary hypertension, and showing no evidence - also on echocardiogram - of left coronary artery trunk obstruction.
