Pulmonary stenosis can occur as part of more congenital cardiac malformations or as rare primary isolated pulmonary stenosis. It has been reported a primary isolated pulmonary artery stenosis in an asymptomatic 25-day-old newborn infant and a rare case of isolated pulmonary stenosis in a 66-year-old woman has been reported too. We present a case of primary isolated pulmonary artery stenosis in an asymptomatic 11-year-old Italian woman where the diagnosis was made during a cardiovascular check-up.
