We present the case of a 6-year-old child who presented with an episode of life threatening hemoptysis. Investigations revealed multiple areas of endobronchial varices and abnormal pleural vessels as well as severe left pulmonary vein stenosis and an atrial septal defect (ASD). After extensive work up and consultation he underwent repair of the left pulmonary vein using a sutureless technique and ASD closure. This resulted in a marked improvement in the appearances of the left lung. The bronchial varices in the right lung remain unchanged. No further hemoptysis has occurred and the child continues to be monitored.
我们报告了一例 6 岁儿童，其因危及生命的咯血发作就诊。检查发现多个支气管腔内静脉曲张和异常胸膜血管，以及严重的左肺静脉狭窄和房间隔缺损（ASD）。经过广泛的检查和咨询，他接受了使用无缝线技术修复左肺静脉和 ASD 闭合的手术。这导致左肺的外观明显改善。右肺的支气管静脉曲张保持不变。此后未再发生咯血，患儿持续接受监测。
