CTICasesHepatopulmonary Syndrome
Imaging findings
Dilated pulmonary vessels extending to the peripheral pleural surfaces and, notably, along the fissures.
Key takeaways
The syndrome results from capillary dilation, leading to poor oxygen diffusion due to the increased distance between red blood cells and the alveolar wall. The dilated vessels observed at the lung periphery and along fissures are specifically venules.
