Pulmonary hemangioma symptoms?

summary

There are anastomotic branches of capillaries between pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein. The blood flows to the vessels with low resistance. The anastomotic branches are expanding and the volume is increasing, thus forming hemangioma. It's not a real tumor. According to the size of the involved vessels, it can be divided into cavernous hemangioma and pulmonary arteriovenous tumor. Pulmonary hemangioma symptoms?

The bronchiole wall may be involved, but it does not protrude into the bronchiole lumen. Most of the patients were asymptomatic and were found by routine X-ray examination. If the shunt from right to left is large, cyanosis and polycythemia may occur. About 50% of the patients can hear vascular murmurs in the chest.

For the presence of pulmonary hypertension, chest imaging signs of pulmonary edema, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid examination found a large number of hemosiderin cells, the application of dilated pulmonary artery drug treatment after the emergence of pulmonary edema signs have a certain diagnostic value, if possible, make a diagnosis. At the same time, chest CT, chest angiography, MRI and other examinations are also helpful in the differential diagnosis.
