Spanish term

HPVC

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Cardiology Chest X-Ray
The context is a report of a chest x-ray for a cardiologist where the size of the heart is being noted. This is the actual text and I don't recognize the acronym: "TORAX PA: cardiomegalia ligera sin datos de HPVC". Any ideas, please?
