Authors report two new cases of lonely pulmonary varices, raising the number of lonely pulmonary varices to 34 and to 61 the number of pulmonary varices related in literature. In both cases the dilated veins were discovered by chance on a chest roentgenogram. The pulmonary angiogram has brought the diagnosis out. A recall of the clinical symptoms and radiological aspects shown off the importance of the pulmonary angiography and of a regular supervision of those patients. If some complications appear or if some shadows extend on chest roentgenogram, the surgical treatment might become necessary.
作者报告了两例新的孤立性肺静脉曲张病例，使孤立性肺静脉曲张的病例数增至34例，文献中相关的肺静脉曲张病例数增至61例。在这两例病例中，扩张的静脉均在胸部X线片上偶然发现。肺血管造影确诊了病情。回顾临床症状和放射学表现凸显了肺血管造影及对这些患者进行定期监测的重要性。如果出现某些并发症或胸部X线片上有阴影扩大，可能需要进行手术治疗。
