Pulmonary venoocclusive disease

SK Chawla, CF Kittle, LP Faber and RJ Jensik

Pulmonary venoocclusive disease has been established as a definite clinical entity characterized by congestive cardiac failure with pulmonary arterial hypertension, chronic interstitial pulmonary edema, and normal wedge pressure on cardiac catheterization. This disease was diagnosed and confirmed in a patient during life. A review of the 32 patients reported earlier has been done in an attempt to fine possible etiological agents. Early recognition and treatment with anticoagulants, methylprednisolone, aspirin, and dipyridamole may improve the prognosis.
