Scintigraphic evidence of pulmonary vascular occlusion in sickle cell disease.

R Lisbona1, V Derbekyan, J A Novales-Diaz.   

Abstract

The acute chest syndrome of sickle cell disease is believed to be primarily a microvascular event. It will rarely involve the larger pulmonary vasculature. We present a case of sickle cell disease where segmental pulmonary arteries were temporarily occluded during the episode of sickling.
