What is pulmonary valve atresia?

Pulmonary atresia is a birth defect (pronounced PULL-mun-airy ah-TREE-sha) of the heart where the valve that controls blood flow from the heart to the lungs doesn't form at all. In babies with this defect, blood has trouble flowing to the lungs to pick up oxygen for the body.

Is pulmonary atresia part of tetralogy of Fallot?

Many children with pulmonary atresia also have a ventricular septal defect (VSD), a hole in the tissue between the lower chambers of the heart. This combination is often called tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia.

Is pulmonary atresia a heart disease?

Pulmonary atresia (uh-TREE-zhuh) is a heart defect present at birth (congenital) that's usually diagnosed soon after birth. In pulmonary atresia, the valve that lets blood out of the heart to go to the lungs (pulmonary valve) doesn't form correctly.

What is the difference between pulmonary stenosis and pulmonary atresia?

The term pulmonary stenosis refers to narrowing of the right ventricular outflow tract; pulmonary atresia implies complete occlusion of the right ventricular outflow tract.

Is tricuspid atresia the same as pulmonary atresia?

Similar to pulmonary atresia, tricuspid atresia happens when the tricuspid valve isn't formed correctly and is instead a solid piece of tissue between the right atrium and right ventricle. This results in a lack of oxygenated blood flowing through the heart and returning to the body.

What is pulmonary atresia with VSD?

Pulmonary atresia (uh-TREE-zhuh) with ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a heart problem present at birth (congenital heart defect). In this pulmonary atresia, the valve between the heart and lungs (pulmonary valve) is not fully developed.

What is the pulmonary valve in the heart?

The pulmonary valve is one of four valves that control blood flow in the heart. It's between the lower right heart chamber (right ventricle) and the artery that delivers blood to the lungs (pulmonary artery).

How is pulmonary atresia diagnosed?

An echocardiogram is usually the main test used to diagnose pulmonary atresia. An echocardiogram done during pregnancy (fetal echocardiogram) can help diagnose this condition before birth. Cardiac catheterization.

What is the survival rate of pulmonary atresia?

Pulmonary atresia with VSD is the ultimate form of tetralogy of Fallot and is estimated to represent 5% to 10% of tetralogy of Fallot patients. The survival rate without surgical repair is as low as 50% at 1 year of age and 8% at 10 years.

Is atresia same as stenosis?

Atresia and stenosis are birth defects in which the esophagus, stomach or intestines do not develop properly. The defects cause blockages in the digestive tract. An atresia leads to a complete blockage, while a stenosis causes a partial blockage.

Is pulmonary atresia cyanotic or acyanotic?

Cyanotic heart defects include: Tetralogy of Fallot. Transposition of the great vessels. Pulmonary atresia.

What is pulmonary valve stenosis in infants?

Pulmonary stenosis is a birth defect of the heart (congenital). It can happen when the pulmonary valve doesn't grow as it should in a baby during the first 8 weeks of pregnancy. The pulmonary valve connects the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery. It normally has 3 flaps (leaflets) that work like a 1-way door.

The ICD code Q22 is used to code Valvular heart disease

Valvular heart disease is any disease process involving one or more of the four valves of the heart (the aortic and mitral valves on the left and the pulmonary and tricuspid valves on the right). These conditions occur largely as a result of aging. Most people are in their late 50s when diagnosed, and more than one in ten people over 75 have it.
