superior vena cava/pulmonary artery or arteries
I have a problem hearing if this is artery or arterIES(pleural). From my limited knowledge it would be artery, but does somebody know if a pulmonary homograft will connect the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery-- or it is arteries? Same with the Glenn shunt that goes from the superior vena cava to the pulmonary artery or arterIES? I cannot hear the doc clearly and it sounds like it might be arteries. thanks,

Subject: The way I remember is that dilation is the act of being...sm

dilated, dilation and curettage, dilation of the bladder, dilation of the cervical os, etc. Dilatation is the state of being dilated after dilation takes place. I see that they are used interchangeably these days, but this is how I learned to differentiate between the 2 many years ago. An example of the proper way to use dilatation would be, the small bowel obstruction resulted in dilatation of the proximal small bowel. Most times, dilation is what you are looking for.
