چکیده

Pulmonary venous injection of contrast medium in the near-wedge position produced a flow into the pulmonary arterial tree in 15 out of 21 children with cyanotic congenital heart disease. In 5 there was good opacification of both sides from a single injection. The technique provides an additional method of demonstrating the anatomy of the pulmonary arteries where surgical treatment is contemplated.

Diffuse Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation in Children: Essential Value of Contrast Echocardiography in Diagnosis

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVM) are abnormal communications between pulmonary arteries and pulmonary veins, and most commonly congenital in nature. Although rare, it is an important consideration in cyanotic patients of unknown cause. We report 3 cases with diffuse PAVM in children with different clinical manifestations and initial diagnosis was made by transthoracic contrast echoc...

Background & Aims: The purpose of this study was to survey red blood cell distribution width after experimentally induced pulmonary embolism in rabbit. Due to oxygen transfer performance of red blood cells, the survey of their special forms and passable widths through the vessels in many diseases is vital. One of these diseases is pulmonary embolism in which red blood cell distribution wid...

Angiographic evidence of pulmonary vasomotion in the dog.

Pulmonary artery vasomotion is considered to be a factor affecting blood flow through the lungs despite the fact that direct confirmation of pulmonary vascular motion has been difficult to obtain. Indirect evidence has been presented by physiologists using mathematical techniques, involving pressure differences and flow rates. A more direct approach to the study of pulmonary vasomotion would be...

An X-ray Microscopic Study of the Vasa Vasorum of Normal Human Coronary Arteries.

The first description of the distribution of the bronchial arteries in injected specimens is attributed to Ruysch in 1721 (von Hayek, 1960). Robertson (1929), while injecting the vasa vasorum in the ascending aorta of dogs and lambs with coloured cellulose, described, withoutillustration, an anastomosis between the bronchial and coronary arteries through the vasa of the pulmonary trunk, thus co...
