Pulmonary artery stenosis
SpecialtyMedical genetics Edit this on Wikidata

Stenosis of pulmonary artery is a condition where the pulmonary artery is subject to an abnormal constriction (or stenosis).[1]

It should not be confused with a pulmonary valve stenosis, which is in the heart, but can have similar hemodynamic effects.

In some cases it is treated with surgery.[2]
