The evaluation of pulmonary vascular obstructive disease (PVOD) by lung biopsy specimens are established as useful adjunctive means in the assess-ment of operability in patients with congenital cardiac defects. We experienced a case with atrial septal defect, and her pulmonary arterial mean pres-sure (PAm), pulmonary to systemic flow ratio (Qp/ Qs), pulmonary vascular resistance (Rp), and pulmo-nary to systemic resistance ratio (Rp/Rs) were 51 mmHg, 1.25, 10.2 U, and O.46 respectively. Lung biopsy revealed Heath-Edwards Grade 4 PVOD (ple-xiform lesions). She was successfully operated upon with subsequent improvement in subjective sympto-ms, hypoxemia, cardiomegaly, and ECG evidence of right ventricular overload. Cardiac catheterization one month after the operation showed that the PAm, Rp, Rp/Rs were 38 mmHg, 5. 2 U, O. 32 respectively. The hemodynamic data two years later were essen-tially unchanged. Although the presence of plexi-form lesions are generally believed to indicate that the patients are inoperable, our experience (and some others) suggest that there may be operative indications even in the presence of advanced PVOD in patients with congenital cardiac defects.
