Hello, I would like to ask some questions regarding my father’s health condition. What is pulmonary artery disease? It looks like that is his diagnose but he still has one last visit to the doctor before the final diagnose. I would just like to know what this condition he has to deal with now is and how dangerous it is.

We might be talking about hereditary heart anomaly which is all about damaged valvula in the pulmonary artery. This leads to dysfunction of the heart and it cannot work properly, which results with the bigger amount of blood ending up in the lungs. Now lungs cannot work properly and cause several symptoms. If it is hereditary, it might be treated with an operation.
