pubmed:abstractText
Forty-three lung biopsies taken from 42 patients with various congenital heart malformations with high pulmonary hypertension (aged from 8 months to 34 years) were studied by morphological and morphometric methods. Changes in the pulmonary vessels were evaluated according to Heat-Edwards' classification and morphometric classification of Rabinovitch , et al. The morphometric data give some additional information on the growth and development of peripheral vessels, the degree of hypertrophy of tunica media muscularis, a decrease in the size of arteries. The demonstration of considerable reduction in the number of peripheral arteries by morphometry constitutes a serious prognostic sign of further progression of sclerotic changes in the pulmonary vessels even in the early correction of the heart malformation.
