ABSTRACT Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a distinct and potentially curable form of pulmonary hypertension; however, a substantial proportion of patients remain inoperable or experience persistent or recurrent disease. Pharmacological therapies targeting the nitric oxide–soluble guanylate cyclase–cyclic guanosine monophosphate (

ABSTRACT Pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction increase mortality in multivessel pediatric pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS). Pulmonary vasodilator use is limited in PVS due to the perceived risk of pulmonary edema. We aimed to describe our experience with pulmonary vasodilators in PVS and to assess changes in RV function and ...

ABSTRACT Abnormal pulmonary hemodynamics during exercise may persist even after balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) for inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). We report two female patients who underwent long‐term supervised outpatient cardiac rehabilitation (CR) after BPA with continuous pulmonary vasodilators.

A patient with mediastinal lymphoma developed refractory chylothorax due to SVC thrombosis. Mechanical thrombectomy restored venous patency and resolved the chylothorax, avoiding thrombolysis and upfront stenting. ABSTRACT Chylothorax is an uncommon presentation of mediastinal lymphoma, typically attributed to direct tumour invasion.
