  • Title: Pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysm after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in a pediatric patient.
    Author: Simmons PL, Scavetta KL, McLeary MS, Kuhn MA.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1997 Sep; 27(9):760-2. PubMed ID: 9285742.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of a 4-year-old boy with tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary atresia, and hypoplastic pulmonary arteries who presented with mild hemoptysis and upper respiratory infection 3 weeks following percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for pulmonary artery stenosis. While pneumonia was initially suggested on early plain radiographs of the chest, a large pseudoaneurysm of a right lower lobe pulmonary artery branch was subsequently diagnosed with CT and angiography.
