(c) Later period of the lateral view of left main pulmonary artery angiographic image (before the embolization of left upper pulmonary artery) shows the left inferior pulmonary vein (red arrow), but not the left superior pulmonary vein. (d) The lateral view of left main pulmonary artery angiographic image (after the embolization of left upper pulmonary artery) shows good blood filing in the left inferior pulmonary artery while no blood filling in the left upper pulmonary artery
