Left main coronary artery compression in precapillary pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, Volume 14, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive and invalidating condition despite available therapy. Addressing complications such as left main coronary artery compression (LMCo) due to the dilated pulmonary artery (PA) may improve symptoms and survival. Nevertheless, clear recommendations are lacking.
