Abstract
|
|
|
|
Pulmonary vein varix is a rare vascular abnormality defined as localized pulmonary vein dilatation and is rarely reported in the literature. We report a case of pulmonary vein varix in a 20-year-old man who underwent a screening study for military service. The lesion was shown on CT as a focal dilatation of the pulmonary vein located before draining into the right inferior pulmonary vein and with no connection to the pulmonary artery. This lesion should be included in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary nodules.
