Pulmonary infundibular stenosis - what does this mean
Pulmonary infundibular stenosis is a congenital heart defect in which the pulmonary infundibulum, the small artery that connects the pulmonary artery to the right ventricle, is narrowed. this narrowing causes the right ventricle to work harder than normal to pump blood to the lungs, leading to an increased pressure in the right ventricle and the pulmonary arteries. this can lead to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and cyanosis.
What happens during the disease - pulmonary infundibular stenosis
Pulmonary infundibular stenosis is a rare congenital heart defect that occurs when the pulmonary valve is abnormally narrow, which can lead to an obstruction of the flow of oxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery. this obstruction can be caused by the presence of a malformed pulmonary valve, or by the presence of an abnormal muscular bundle known as the infundibular septum, which can encroach on the opening of the pulmonary valve. this leads to increased pressure in the right ventricle, which can cause further problems such as right ventricular hypertrophy and pulmonary hypertension.
