Abstract A fistula between the pulmonary artery and the left atrium is a rare entity and its diagnosis is uncommon in the neonatal period. There are more reported surgical treatments in the literature than with a transcatheter closure. We report the case of a prenatal diagnosis of a large fistula between the right pulmonary artery and the left atrium with successful transcatheter closure with an Amplatzer duct occluder II 6/4 mm.

The Hamman-Rich syndrome is described in a 4-year-old Negro male. The clinical picture was that of persistent cough and progressive dyspnea beginning at 4 months of age. Diagnosis was made ante mortem by lung biopsy. The fibrotic process and arteriolosclerosis were more marked in the right lung. The disease may have been initiated by a bout of aspiration. There was accompanying stenosis of the right pulmonary artery and vein and occlusion of the lumen of the right pulmonary vein at its entrance to the left atrium. The hilar vascular findings are believed to be secondary to hilar areolar inflammation.

AbstractThe formation of a fistula between the right pulmonary artery and the left atrium via a sac is a very rare cyanotic congenital cardiopulmonary defect. A fistula between the pulmonary artery and left atrium may cause cardiac failure in utero. It can safely be treated surgically and in selected cases closure can be performed with transcatheter insertion of a device. In this article, we present a case with a fistula between the right pulmonary artery and the left atrium that was considered unsuitable for transcatheter closure and was safely treated surgically.
