Diseases of the Chest, 1948
Analysis of the records of 15 patients with chronic cor pulmonale indicates that (1) the presence of chronic pulmonary disease is an indication to carry out a complete investigation of the patient's heart to establish the possible presence of cor pulmonale; (2) the outstanding clinical manifestations from the standpoint of symptoms and physical ...

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1971
Cor pulmonale has received little attention in the pediatric literature, but is being recognized with increasing frequency in children. The author presents a rather simple classification of the etiology and discuss some of the more common causes of pulmonary heart disease in children, stressing in particular those conditions which can be reversed by ...

Pulmonary hypertension and valvular heart disease
Herz, 2019Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an important contributor to morbidity and mortality in patients with left-sided heart disease, including valvular heart disease. In this context, elevated left atrial pressure primarily leads to the development of post-capillary PH.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1979
The anatomy and physiology of the pulmonary vasculature has been described with emphasis on several types of pulmonary hypertension and their pathophysiology. Treatment of pulmonary hypertension may be successful, especially when disease is related to emboli which respond to anticoagulant therapy.

Pulmonary Complications of Congenital Heart Disease
Paediatric Respiratory Reviews, 2012Cardiac and pulmonary pathophysiologies are closely interdependent, which makes the management of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) all the more complex. Pulmonary complications of CHD can be structural due to compression causing airway malacia or atelectasis of the lung.

Angiosarcoma of the Heart Presenting as Pulmonary Disease
Chest, 1988A 23-year-old man died from the pulmonary manifestations of cardiac angiosarcoma. The absence of all cardiac signs and symptoms was an unusual feature. The clinical outcome was rapidly fatal. Apparently, the presence of cardiac symptoms in a patient with primary cardiac angiosarcoma is not obligatory.

Pulmonary Hypertension and Congenital Heart Disease
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1973Abstract Pulmonary hypertension occurs in patients with congenital heart disease and may be caused by increased volume of pulmonary blood flow or by anatomical changes in the pulmonary vasculature. Therefore, the determination of pulmonary vascular resistance expresses the status of the pulmonary vascular bed more accurately than does the level of the

Vulnerability of Pulmonary Capillaries in Heart Disease
Circulation, 1995Abstract The pulmonary blood-gas barrier presents a dilemma. It must be extremely thin for efficient gas exchange. However, it also needs to be immensely strong because the stresses in the pulmonary capillary wall become extremely high when the capillary pressure rises.

The term “pulmonary heart disease” (PHD) is often used as synonymous with the World Health Organization’s (1961) definition of cor pulmonale: Hypertrophy of the right ventricle resulting from disease affecting the function and/or the structure of the lung, except when these alterations are the result of diseases that primarily affect the left side of
