[Radiologic patterns of pulmonary edema in chronic pulmonary diseases (author's transl)]. 1977

V Piloni, and C Rossi, and S Mignani, and G Ghigi, and M Zompatori

Three atypical patterns of cardiac failure and pulmonary edema, as frequently seen in chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, are described; I. regional; II. miliary-like; III. Swiss-cheese like. Their importance in early diagnosis of pulmonary edema is discussed in the light of a review of a series of 98 patients whose pulmonary function was also investigated. Examples and statistical data are drown from this series.

Chronic heart failure is more common than acute heart failure which results from sudden insult to cardiac function, such as MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION.
