it courses leftward and posterior to the aorta to divide into the right andleft pulmonary arteries(seeFig. 19-6). Although theright pulmonary arterycourses horizontally behind theascending aortaand thesuperior vena cava, it lies anterior to the right mainstem bronchus (seeFigs. 19-8 and 19-22...
A more than 1 : 1 relationship between the segmental pulmonary artery and the bronchus in different pulmonary lobes was seen in 78% of the cases. A more than 1 : 1 relationship between the MPA and the aorta was seen in 76% of the cases. Correlation between MPA and the mean pulmonary ...
In this instance, the PE is considered intermediate or high-risk and often lodges in the bifurcation of the main pulmonary artery (Bull & Hountras, 2023b). Though rare, they can cause life-threatening complications. Epidemiology The true incidence of PE is unknown, as some cases go ...

The diameter of the interlobar artery on the frontal chest film as measured from its lateral side to the wall of the intermediate bronchus should be less than 16 mm. Upper and Lower Lung Zones and Bronchoarterial Ratios In the normal erect person, the upper lung zone vessels are smaller ...
In this review, we describe an innovative technique to reconstruct the great arteries in spiral fashion, which is the natural relationship of aorta and pulmonary artery. The structural and functional studies underlying the basics of natural spiral great arteries we published in the last two decades ...
pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) of ≥ 25 mmHg and a normal pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) of ≤ 15 mmHg. The assessment of PCWP may allow the distinction between pre-capillary and post-capillary PH (PCWP > 15 mmHg). Echocardiography is an important tool in the management of ...

Patients on mechanical ventilators with concurrentabdominal diseasemay benefit from having IAP measured. When pulmonary orcardiovascular parameters...
RATS could dissect the lymph nodes around the lobe bronchus and perform the dissection of levels 7, 11, and 12 lymph nodes routinely. Although the operation duration of RATS, which has a small number of cases, was longer than the conventional VATS in the present study, segmentectomy of the...
