  • Title: [Digital angiography of pulmonary vein anomalies].
    Author: Beslić S, Zutić H, Dalagija F.
    Journal: Med Arh; 1998; 52(4):203-6. PubMed ID: 10321064.
    Abstract:
    In this study, the authors made the analysis of five patients who had striped tortuous pulmonary density or wide hilus at the standard radiography examination. By the pulmonary intravenous digital subtraction angiography method, a pulmonary varix was discovered in two cases and in one case a wide common mouth of the right pulmonary veins in the left atrium. Mild variation of the dilatation of the pulmonary veins was present in two cases out of which one was with an aberrant draining into the left atrium. Digital angiography, as a simple screening method, give us a possibility of the ambulatory check up of the large number of patients and therefore a more frequent discovery of these, in the most cases asymptomatic anomalies, what eliminates an unnecessary surgical treatment.
