Pulmonary Vein Stenosis: Incremental Knowledge Gains to Improve Outcomes
Children, 2021 Pulmonary vein stenosis remains a considerable clinical challenge, with high mortality still present in children with progressive disease. In this review, we discuss the clinical spectrum of pulmonary vein stenosis and what is known about the etiology ...

Pulmonary Vein Stenosis in a Newborn: A Commonly Overlooked Diagnosis [PDF]
Case Reports in Cardiology, 2015 The diagnosis of primary pulmonary vein stenosis is often overlooked because its symptoms overlap lung diseases and pulmonary arterial hypertension. Its diagnosis may be difficult because the condition is progressive and associated with other defects. We

Pulmonary vein thrombosis in patients with medical risk factors
Radiology Case Reports, 2018 Pulmonary vein thrombosis in patients with medical illnesses has been rarely reported, and it is also rarely reported in those with no risk factors. We report 2 patients with pulmonary vein thrombosis, 1 with metastatic renal cell carcinoma and 1 with ...

Methodist DeBakey Cardiovascular JournalThe pulmonary veins normally drain into the left atrium, with the superior pulmonary veins typically situated anterior and inferior to the right pulmonary arteries. However, anomalies can happen. We encountered an exceedingly rare pulmonary vascular anomaly for a patient presenting with atypical chest pain, where the right superior pulmonary vein ...

A long and narrow pulmonary vein thrombus attached to the wall of a pulmonary vein
IJC Heart & Vasculature, 2015 Pulmonary vein thrombosis (PVT) is often not diagnosed because PVT has subtle symptoms and PVT is believed to be rare. The mechanism for the formation of PVT is unclear. In this case, I describe a small thrombus in a small branch of a pulmonary vein draining into a larger vein, the right lower pulmonary vein (RLPV).

Pulmonary vasoconstrictor action of KCNQ potassium channel blockers [PDF]
, 2006 KCNQ channels have been widely studied in the nervous system, heart and inner ear, where they have important physiological functions. Recent reports indicate that KCNQ channels may also be expressed in portal vein where they are suggested to influence ...

Transposition of the Pulmonary Veins [PDF]
Circulation, 1958 The seriousness of incomplete transposition of the pulmonary veins has probably been underestimated in the past. Data on 11 patients is presented, including 10 with associated atrial septal defects. Common symptoms were dyspnea, fatigability, and frequent respiratory infections.

Blood vessels and their construction in the cavities of pulmonary tuberculosis [PDF]
, 1958 First of all, we investigated the origin, the construction and distribution of the bronchial arteries and veins in adult rabbits, and then observed various changes of the blood vessels in experimental cavities and caseous foci and also studied the ...

Pulmonary vein stenosis and the pathophysiology of “upstream” pulmonary veins
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2014 Surgical and catheter-based interventions on pulmonary veins are associated with pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS), which can progress diffusely through the "upstream" pulmonary veins. The mechanism has been rarely studied. We used a porcine model of PVS to assess disease progression with emphasis on the potential role of endothelial-mesenchymal transition
