  • Title: [Pulmonary venous occlusive disease. Case report and literature review].
    Author: Bütikofer J, Vogt P, Knoblauch M.
    Journal: Schweiz Med Wochenschr; 1991 Aug 17; 121(33):1169-75. PubMed ID: 1925445.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a 64-year-old female patient who died of pulmonary veno-occlusive disease. The patient had suffered for several months from increasing dyspnea and right heart failure. Chest x-ray showed signs of pulmonary hypertension as well as Kerley A- and B-lines and pre-edema and a moderately enlarged heart. The diagnosis of pulmonary veno-occlusive disease was confirmed by open lung biopsy. We compare our case with the other cases of pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) published in the literature.
