[Pulmonary stenosis in adults. Report of a clinical case].
The authors report a case of valvular pulmonary stenosis in a 60 years old patient, admitted to hospital with heart failure and angor pectoris. Four years previously a VVI pacemaker had been implanted for complete heart block. At the time of the admission he had two pacemakers leads in the right ventricle; one of them was retained and functionless since the changing of the generator which occurred 1 year before. The usual complications of endocardial pacemakers are discussed, as well as the natural course and surgery indications for valvular pulmonary stenosis in adults.
