ABSTRACT Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is rare in adolescents, and evidence regarding balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) in young patients with hereditary thrombophilia remains limited. A 16year‐old male was diagnosed with CTEPH and protein S deficiency, characterized by markedly low activity and antigen levels.

Chronic oral exposure to microplastics may disrupt gut microbiota homeostasis and intestinal barrier integrity, potentially engaging the gut–brain axis and systemic inflammatory responses. These alterations may be associated with impaired blood–brain barrier function, cerebral microvascular dysfunction, and enhanced endothelial inflammation, pro ...

Operative classification of thromboembolic disease determines outcome after pulmonary endarterectomy
Objective: We sought to determine whether type and location of thromboembolic disease in the pulmonary vascular tree predicts the hemodynamic result and clinical outcome in patients undergoing pulmonary endarterectomy.

Riociguat: an upcoming therapy in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension?
Although pulmonary endarterectomy remains the treatment of choice for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), not all patients will benefit from or receive this highly specialised surgery.
