PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

Annals of Medicine, 2006
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a disease of the small pulmonary arteries characterized by vascular narrowing and increased pulmonary vascular resistance, which eventually leads to right ventricular failure. Vasoconstriction, vascular proliferation, remodeling of the pulmonary vessels, and thrombosis are all contributing factors to the increased ...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]

Breathe, 2005
Key pointsPAH is defined by RHC showing a pre-capillary PH.Clinical suspicion of PH should arise in the case of symptoms such as dyspnoea without overt signs of specific heart or lung disease.RHC is required to confirm the diagnosis of PAH, to assess the severity of the haemodynamic impairment and to test the vasoreactivity of the pulmonary circulation.

Dilatation of the Pulmonary Artery in Pulmonary Stenosis [PDF]

Circulation, 1956
Dilatation of the pulmonary artery occurs frequently in cases of valvular pulmonary stenosis and is often called "poststenotic." We determined the diameter of the pulmonary artery angiocardiographically and compared this with the data obtained by heart catheterization in cases of pulmonary stenosis and of idiopathic dilatation of the pulmonary artery ...

Pulmonary Artery Denervation for Pulmonary Artery Hypertension

JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, 2015
While the seminal advance in the treatment of pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) over the past 2 decades has been pharmacological targeting of dysfunctional endothelium-derived pathways that contribute to the characteristic vascular remodeling of this condition irrespective of etiology [(1)][1],

Anatomical characterization of pulmonary artery and implications to pulmonary artery pressure monitor implantation

Scientific Reports, 2023
In patients with heart failure, guideline directed medical therapy improves outcomes and requires close patient monitoring. Pulmonary artery pressure monitors permit remote assessment of cardiopulmonary haemodynamics and facilitate early intervention ...

Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas in Children and Adolescents: Expert Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas (SPN) is a rare low‐grade malignant exocrine pancreatic tumor, mostly discovered during the second decade of life in females, with a very good prognosis, provided microscopically complete surgical excision is achieved.
