Giant Hiatus Hernia Causing Pulmonary Vein Obstruction: Insights From <scp>4D</scp> Flow Cardiac <scp>MRI</scp>

Severe extrinsic compression of the left atrium by a giant hiatus hernia can obstruct left atrial inflow. 4D flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance is a novel, non-invasive imaging technique that can precisely quantify individual pulmonary vein flow dynamics, facilitating the diagnosis of functional venous obstruction in this rare clinical scenario.

Abstract

Severe extrinsic compression of the left atrium by a giant hiatus hernia can obstruct left atrial inflow. 4D flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance is a novel, non-invasive imaging technique that can precisely quantify individual pulmonary vein flow dynamics, facilitating the diagnosis of functional venous obstruction in this rare clinical scenario.
