  • Title: Dilated pulmonary venous confluence presenting as a mass in mitral stenosis.
    Author: Lautin R, Ledor S, Ledor K, Barek L.
    Journal: Cardiovasc Intervent Radiol; 1982; 5(6):304-6. PubMed ID: 7168835.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary varices are rare venous anomalies which typically present as masses. Since they are usually clinically insignificant, varices must be diagnostically distinguished from parenchymal tumors and mediastinal adenopathy so one may adhere to a conservative medical approach. This report reviews the literature and illustrates a convergence of varices that presented as a larger sized mass than previously described by others.
