It is associated with variable form of Pulmonary artery hypertension. Catheter based intervention is used to treat the disease like balloon dilation and stenting but this has high recurrence rate. Here is a case in which we did a sutureless repair of left pulmonary vein thus decreasing the possibility of recurrence. Sutureless surgical management is technically superior and less challenging than direct left atrial wall anastomosis and it provides better results than catheter based intervention in terms of recurrence of stenosis.展开更多

Symptoms can worsen even more. We present here one such case where stenting done in some other institute in which we did an extra-anatomical bypass from ascending aorta to supracelial aorta successfully bypassing the coarct segment. This was an early approach without assistance of Cadio-pulmonary (CP) Bypass. We conclude that this procedure should be done in centres where experienced operator and cardiac surgery back up is present. This was a good approach without assistance of CP Bypass.展开更多
