Mechanism of pulmonary vein stenosis in infants with normally connected veins

Iran M. Sadr, Puay E. Tan, Mark W. Kieran, Kathy J. JenkinsChildren’s Hospital, Boston.United States American Journal of CardiologyAm J Cardiol 2000; 86: 577-579DOI: 10.1016/s0002-9149(00)01022-5 AbstractWe used microscopy, immunohistochemistry, and cell culture to identify the mechanism of restenosis in 4 infants with isolated pulmonary vein stenosis. Recurrent obstruction appears to be due to myofibroblastic proliferation in […]
