|---|---|
| granuloma, plasma cell, pulmonary | A pseudotumour of the lung composed of inflammatory cells and showing complete maturity of fibroblastic components with a striking lack of mitosis. It is also called postinflammatory pseudotumour and pseudoneoplastic pneumonitis. (berardi, r.s. Et al. Inflammatory pseudotumours of the lung. Surg gynecol obstet 156:89-96, jan 83) (12 Dec 1998) |
| right inferior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> The vein returning oxygenated blood from the inferior lobe of the right lung to the left atrium. Synonym: vena pulmonalis inferior dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right interlobar pulmonary artery | <radiology> Upper limit of normal: 15 mm (12 Dec 1998) |
| right pulmonary artery | <anatomy, artery> The longer of the two terminal branches of the pulmonary trunk, it passes transversely across the mediastinum passing inferior to the aortic arch to enter the hilum of the right lung. Branches are distributed with the bronchi; frequent variations occurs. Typical branches to the superior lobe (rami lobi superioris ) are apical (ramus apicalis ), anterior ascending (rami anterior ascendens ), anterior descending (ramus anterior descendens ), posterior ascending (ramus posterior ascendens ), and posterior descending (ramus posterior descendens ); to the middle lobe (rami lobi medii ) are medial (ramus medialis ) and lateral (ramus lateralis ); and to the inferior lobe (rami lobi inferioris ) are superior (apical) branch of inferior lobe (ramus superior (apicalis) lobi inferioris ), and the anterior, lateral (lateralis), medial (medialis) and posterior basal branches (rami basalis). Synonym: arteria pulmonalis dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> The vein returning oxygenated blood from the superior and middle lobes of the right lung to the left atrium. Synonym: vena pulmonalis superior dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coin lesion, pulmonary | Solitary, round, circumscribed shadows found in the lungs in X-ray examinations. Common causes are tuberculosis, neoplasms, cysts, or vascular anomalies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| congenital absence of pulmonary valve | <radiology> BIG central pulmonary arteries, big RV (12 Dec 1998) |
| congenital pulmonary arteriovenous fistula | Abnormal congenital communication between pulmonary arteries and veins usually found in the lung parenchyma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexogenic pulmonary arteriopathy | <syndrome> Sclerosis of the pulmonary arteries in chronic cor pulmonale; associated with severe cyanosis, it is a condition resembling polycythemia vera but resulting from primary pulmonary arteriosclerosis or primary pulmonary hypertension and characterised by plexiform lesions of arterioles. Synonym: Ayerza's disease, cardiopathia nigra, plexogenic pulmonary arteriopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| postcapillary pulmonary hypertension | <radiology> Heart: LV failure, mitral stenosis, LA myxoma / thrombus, cor triatriatum, Pulmonary veins: congenital stenosis of pulmonary vein origin, mediastinal granulomata and neoplasms, idiopathic pulmonary veno-occlusive disease, anomalous pulmonary venous return (12 Dec 1998) |
| posterior branch of right superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> Drains posterior portion of superior lobe of right lung. Synonym: ramus posterior venae pulmonalis dextrae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| precapillary pulmonary hypertension | <radiology> Vascular: increased flow (left to right shunts), decreased flow (tetralogy of Fallot), primary pulmonary hypertension, thromboembolic disease, pulmonary arteritides, Pleuropulmonary: emphysema, diffuse lung disease, fibrothorax, chest deformity, hypoventilation, high-altitude pulmonary hypertension (12 Dec 1998) |
| hantavirus pulmonary syndrome | <syndrome> Acute respiratory illness in humans caused by the muerto canyon virus whose primary rodent reservoir is the deer mouse peromyscus maniculatus. First identified in the southwestern united states, this syndrome is characterised most commonly by fever, myalgias, headache, cough, and rapid respiratory failure. (12 Dec 1998) |
| primary pulmonary hypertension | A condition where there is increased blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries with otherwise normal heart and lungs. The cause is unknown, but there is diffuse narrowing of the pulmonary arteries resulting in increased arteriolar pressures. Secondary heart failure ensues without correction of this problem. There is an increased incidence of this disease in females between the ages of 20 and 40 years. Treatment may include a heart and lung transplant in select cases. (27 Sep 1997) |
