Abstract:
Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) occurred in a six-year-old girl. Investigation of a number of proposed causes for this uncommon condition and histologic progression of disease are documented. To our knowledge, this is the first case of PVOD in which death was due to massive alveolar hemorrhage.
