Abstract

Apulmonary artery embolism related to hydatid disease is extremely rare. Although isolatedcases have been reported, it is usually due to a hepatic lesion invading the hepatic veins orinferior vena cava, or a direct embolism from right cardiac lesions. Patients may present withhemoptysis, dyspnea, chest pain, acute cor pulmonale, or sudden death. The diagnosis is madefrom a medical history, clinical findings and computed tomography imaging. The computedtomography shows single or multiple cystic lesions leading to a filling defect or obstruction in thepulmonary arteries. In this article we present a 76-year-old woman with multiple lung lesions anda bilateral pulmonary artery embolism. In this case the pulmonary artery embolism was considered to be secondary to the invasion of the inferior vena cava by the liver lesion.

Özet

Kist hidatiğe bağlı pulmoner arter embolisi çok nadir izlenir. İzole olgular bildirilmiş olsa da,genellikle karaciğerdeki bir lezyonun hepatik venlere veya vena kava inferiyora açılmasıyla yada sağ kalpteki lezyonların embolisiyle oluşur. Hastalar kliniğe hemoptizi, dispne, göğüs ağrısı,kor pulmonale veya ani ölümle gelebilir. Tanı öykü, klinik bulgular ve bilgisayarlı tomografi görüntüleme ile koyulur. Bilgisayarlı tomografide pulmoner arterlerde dolum defekti veya tıkanmaoluşturan tek veya çok sayıda kistik lezyon saptanır. Bu makalede çok sayıda akciğer lezyonu vebilateral pulmoner arter embolisi olan 76 yaşındaki kadın hasta sunulmaktadır. Bu olguda pulmoner arter embolisinin vena kava inferiyorun karaciğerdeki lezyon tarafından invaze edilmesinebağlı olduğu düşünülmüştür.
