1 Pulmonary Artery Dissection Complicating Lung Transplantation for Primary Pulmonary Hypertension 
Yasushi Sakamaki, MD, Masato Minami, MD, Mitsunori Ohta, MD, Toshiki Takahashi, MD, Goro Matsumiya, MD, Shinichiro Miyoshi, MD, Hikaru Matsuda, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 81, Issue 1, Pages (January 2006) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2006 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 (A) Stenosis of the right main pulmonary artery on transesophageal echocardiography. The blood flow overriding the aorta (Ao) represents the flow between the main and right pulmonary arteries (mPA and rPA, respectively), and is attenuated due to a thrombus-like lesion in the false lumen (arrowheads). Note an intimal flap shown in the dissecting PA (arrow). (B) Stenosis of right main pulmonary artery confirmed by pulmonary arteriography. Narrowed segment is evident in the proximal right pulmonary artery (arrowheads).
