What Causes Pulmonary Heart Infection In Kids?
Hello Sir My Son (2.5 Years) suffering with Right Pulmonary Heart. He is getting infection frequently, cough and fast breathing. Doctors said his right lung is small compared to Left Lung as blood is not passing to his right lung and there is no path also to unblock it. Also doctors said..there is no treatment for it. Could you please suggest is it something can be resolved ?

children usually dont have recurrent respiratory tract infection in pure right pulmonary heart but this may occur in mixed type of structural lesion.
operability depends on complexiy of structural defect and experience of surgeon. so parents should seek second opinion.
