Balloon pulmonary angioplasty under awake veno‐arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in a patient with class III obesity with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension complicated with multiple serious comorbidities

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a chronic disease that can rapidly deteriorate into circulatory collapse when complicated by comorbidities. We herein describe a case involving a 43‐year‐old woman with class III obesity (body mass

Homozygous Loss‐of‐Function Variant in SLC20A1 Coding for Ubiquitous Phosphate Transporter PiT1 Is Associated With Multiple Developmental Abnormalities

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 64-72, July 2026.
Biallelic SLC20A1 loss‐of‐function variant causes a previously unrecognized multisystem developmental disorder. We report the first homozygous case presenting with tetralogy of Fallot, renal agenesis, polydactyly, and growth impairment. Transcriptome analysis of patient‐derived fibroblasts suggests significant dysregulation of pathways critical for ...

Variability in ACT Response to Standard UFH Bolus During PCI: A Prospective Study on Determinants of Subtherapeutic Anticoagulation

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 7, Page 2293-2303, June 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Unfractionated heparin (UFH) remains the standard anticoagulant during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), with guidelines recommending a target activated clotting time (ACT) of ≥250 s. However, despite receiving a standardized bolus dose, many patients fail to achieve this target.

Successful Revascularization of Chronic Total Occlusions in Patients With Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 7, Page 2323-2334, June 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease (CTEPD) leads to chronic total occlusions (CTOs) of the pulmonary arteries in a minority of patients. Treatment of CTOs with balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) may substantially improve patient hemodynamics but presents unique technical challenges and has previously been associated with a ...

Pulmonary artery dysfunction in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2017
Background: Unresolved thromboemboli in the pulmonary arteries (PA) is known to cause chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). However, it remains unknown if vascular dysfunction in pulmonary arteries exists in patients with CTEPH.

Haemoptysis and bronchial congestion due to pulmonary vein stenosis after maze procedure

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, 2019
Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a rare disease that can cause haemoptysis. Acquired PVS is indicated as a complication associated with cardiac catheter intervention; however, the maze procedure has not been reported to induce PVS.

Dilatation of a restrictive interatrial communication using a balloon angioplasty catheter

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
Balloon atrioseptostomy is a life-saving procedure palliating certain congenital heart defects like transposition of the great arteries, right or left atrioventricular valve atresia, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, and pulmonary hypertension ...

A rare cause of pulmonary hypertension: bilateral pulmonary artery involvement and stent restenosis due to Takayasu arteritis

open access: yesTürk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2014
A 53-year-old female patient was admitted with dyspnea and fatigue. On transthoracic echocardiography, systolic pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) was measured as 90 mmHg, and right heart catheterization revealed pulmonary arterial hypertension.

An overview of balloon pulmonary angioplasty for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesExpert Review of Respiratory Medicine
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a severe and progressive condition caused by unresolved pulmonary arterial obstructions, leading to secondary microvasculopathy and poor hemodynamics. Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the first-line treatment for operable patients.
