A patient is described in whom clinical presentation, V/Q scan, and pulmonary angiogram were consistent with pulmonary embolus. No improvement occurred despite therapy with heparin. When sent for surgical embolectomy, sarcoma of the pulmonary artery was diagnosed. This entity, though rare, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary vascular disease.
描述了一名患者，其临床表现、通气/灌注扫描和肺血管造影均与肺栓塞相符。尽管使用肝素治疗，但病情并无改善。在送去进行手术取栓时，诊断为肺动脉肉瘤。这种疾病虽然罕见，但在肺血管疾病的鉴别诊断中应予以考虑。
