Abstract

Pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) is a rare cause of primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) diagnosed in children and young adults with a nonspecific clinical presentation of dyspnea, cough, chest pain, and fatigue. It is characterized by extensive proliferation of pulmonary capillaries within alveolar septa. The imaging features include diffuse centrilobular ground-glass opacities with features of pulmonary hypertension. We present a case of PCH in an 11-year-old boy who was diagnosed with PPH in echocardiography and referred for diagnostic imaging.

肺毛细血管瘤病:原发性肺动脉高压的一个不寻常的原因,在一个典型的计算机断层成像特征的儿童。
肺毛细血管瘤病(PCH)是一种罕见的原发性肺动脉高压(PPH)的病因,诊断于儿童和年轻人,临床表现为呼吸困难、咳嗽、胸痛和疲劳。其特点是肺泡间隔内肺毛细血管广泛增生。影像学表现为弥漫性小叶中心磨玻璃影伴肺动脉高压征象。我们提出一个病例PCH在11岁的男孩被诊断为PPH超声心动图和参考诊断成像。
