Preferred Label : Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins;
Symbol : ACDMPV;
CISMeF acronym : ACDMPV;
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;
Alternative titles and symbols : Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins and other congenital
anomalies;
Description : Congenital alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACDMPV)
is characterized histologically by failure of formation and ingrowth of alveolar capillaries
that then do not make contact with alveolar epithelium, medial muscular thickening
of small pulmonary arterioles with muscularization of the intraacinar arterioles,
thickened alveolar walls, and anomalously situated pulmonary veins running alongside
pulmonary arterioles and sharing the same adventitial sheath. Less common features
include a reduced number of alveoli and a patchy distribution of the histopathologic
changes. The disorder is associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the
neonate and shows varying degrees of lability and severity (Boggs et al., 1994). Affected
infants present with respiratory distress resulting from pulmonary hypertension in
the early postnatal period, and the disease is uniformly fatal within the newborn
period (Vassal et al., 1998). Additional features of ACDMPV include multiple congenital
anomalies affecting the cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and musculoskeletal
systems, as well as disruption of the normal right-left asymmetry of intrathoracic
or intraabdominal organs (Sen et al., 2004).;
