Congenital pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae occur as a result of abnormal blood vessel development in the lungs. Blood takes a short pass from the pulmonary artery to veins. Multiple pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae are a rare occurrence, especially when involving both lungs. Fistulae located at the edge are prone to rupture and bleeding. We discuss a case of a 15-year-old overweight male with multiple pulmonary arteriovenous fistulae successfully treated with wedge-shape excision via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.
先天性肺动静脉瘘是由于肺部血管发育异常引起的。血液从肺动脉短时间进入静脉。多发性肺动静脉瘘较为罕见,尤其是累及双肺时。边缘部位的瘘管容易破裂出血。我们讨论了一例 15 岁超重男性患者,通过电视辅助胸腔镜手术楔形切除成功治疗多发性肺动静脉瘘。
