[2] [3] In ICD-11 the search and coding of any disease, including rare ones is done via the ICD-11 website. [4]
The outcome of treatment is dependent on causality. Pulmonary Hemorrhage is present in 7 to 10% of neonatal autopsies, but up to 80% of autopsies of very preterm infants. [1] The incidence is 1 in 1,000 live births. [1] Pulmonary hemorrhage has a high mortality rate of 30% to 40%. [1]
TBS patients may have the following symptoms: [3] Abnormalities of the external ears (unusually large or small, unusually shaped, sometimes with sensorineural hearing loss or deafness due to lesions or dysfunctions of part of the internal ear or its nerve tracts and centers or conductive hearing loss from the external or middle ear), dysplastic ears, lop ear (over-folded ear helix ...
Pulmonary artery stenosis (PAS) is a narrowing of the pulmonary artery.The pulmonary artery is a blood vessel moving blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs. . This narrowing can be due to many causes, including infection during pregnancy, a congenital heart defect, a problem with blood clotting in childhood or early adulthood, or a genetic ch
The current clinical classification system for tuberculosis (TB) is based on the pathogenesis of the disease. [1] Health care providers should comply with local laws and regulations requiring the reporting of TB.

Aortopulmonary window (APW) is a faulty connection between the aorta and the main pulmonary artery that results in a significant left-to-right shunt. [2] The aortopulmonary window is the rarest of septal defects, accounting for 0.15-0.6% of all congenital heart malformations. [4]
Pulmonary artery sling is a condition where the contralateral sided pulmonary artery serves as the source of one of the branch pulmonary arteries. [1] Pulmonary artery sling was originally written about in 1897 by Glaevecke and Doehle.
Pieces of the potentially infected clot can break off and travel through the right heart into the lungs as emboli, blocking branches of the pulmonary artery that carry deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs. [citation needed] Sepsis following a throat infection was first described by Hugo Schottmüller in 1918. [3]
