Lung biopsy in mitral stenosis.
The recent development of intrathoracic operations upon patients with mitral stenosis has provided an opportunity to study by biopsy the changes in the hearts and lungs of these patients at a time when, although the disease is fully established, the general condition is still good. Since, in addition, the specimens are fixed immediately, all suspicion that the appearances seen are terminal or a...
متن کاملLingular biopsy in mitral stenosis.
Interest in the pathology of the lung vessels in mitral stenosis was stimulated by the masterly paper of Parker and Weiss in 1936, and has been increased in recent years by the development of surgical treatment of the stenosed valve. In 1949 Larrabee, Parker, and Edwards reasserted the findings of F. Parker and Weiss, and suggested that changes in the vessels might diminish the improvement that...
متن کاملThe role of positive auricular biopsy in mitral stenosis.
Microscopic examination of left auricular biopsy has been a routine procedure since the advent of mitral valve surgery. A "positive" auricular biopsy with the presence of so-called Aschoff lesions presumably indicating rheumatic activity, is frequently encountered under such circumstances even in the absence of clinical or routine laboratory criteria suggestive of active rheumatic carditis.'. A...
متن کاملBiopsy of the left auricle in mitral stenosis.
During the past three years operations upon the hearts of patients with mitral stenosis have been performed in increasing numbers (Baker et al., 1952). An opportunity has thus arisen to study by biopsy the changes in the heart and lungs at a time when, although the disease is fully established, the patient is still in a fairly good state of health. Previous morbid anatomical studies having been...
متن کاملMITRAL STENOSIS COMPLICATED BY RENAL ARTERY EMBOLISM
Six patients with mitral stenosis complicated by renal artery embolism studied prospectively are presented. In five patients there was unilateral and in one patient bilateral renal artery involvement. The diagnosis was confirmed by intravenous pyelography, retrograde pyelography, renal angiography, renal scan or a combination of these. All had atrial fibrillation, proteinuria and elevated ...
