Description: ACUTE pulmonary edema usually is accompanied by cardiomegaly unless it is of noncardiac origin, or occurs in special cases of heart failure 1 , 2 such as restrictive cardiomyopathy, mitral stenosis, aortic stenosis, paroxysmal tachyarrhythmia and acute myocardial infarction. However, it has not generally been appreciated that recurrent pulmonary edema with clinically and radiographically normal heart size may characterize a syndrome in the spectrum Abbreviations Used LVEDP: left ventricular end-diastolic pressure LVEDV: left ventricular end-diastolic volume LVESV: left ventricular end-systolic volume of coronary-artery disease. This is not altogether unexpected in view of the observations of high left ventricular end-diastolic pressure in the normovolumic . . .
