We report a case of a 41-year-old patient with multiple pulmonary aneurysms secondary to Hughes-Stovin syndrome. Conventional pulmonary angiography could not be performed, because thrombus in both the inferior and superior vena cavae prevented catheter passage. Contrast-enhanced three-dimensional (3D) MR angiography (MRA) showed two segmental pulmonary aneurysms in the right lung. The affected segments of the lung were resected successfully, predicated on the MRA findings.
我们报告一例41岁患有继发于休斯-斯托文综合征的多发性肺动脉瘤患者。由于下腔静脉和上腔静脉内的血栓阻碍了导管通过,因此无法进行传统的肺血管造影。对比增强三维(3D)磁共振血管造影(MRA)显示右肺有两个节段性肺动脉瘤。根据MRA检查结果,成功切除了肺部的病变节段。
