Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension in an Adolescent With a Novel Frameshift Variant in PROS1

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 2, June 2026.
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.

From the Gut to the Brain: Microplastic‐Associated Neurovascular Dysfunction and Implications for Stroke Risk

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 11, 23 February 2026.
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 ...

Anesthetic management of pulmonary endarterectomy in a patient with suprasystemic pulmonary pressure: a case report

open access: yes, 2020
Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is a potentially curative procedure for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. A 34-year Indian male presented with supra-systemic pulmonary pressure was taken for PEA after achievable optimization. A successful PEA

Operative classification of thromboembolic disease determines outcome after pulmonary endarterectomy

open access: yes, 2002
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.

Quality of life and functional status after pulmonary endarterectomy for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension: A Swedish single‐center study

open access: yes, 2023
Little is known about long‐term quality of life (QOL) and functional status after pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). We investigated QOL and functional status late after PEA.

Riociguat: an upcoming therapy in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension?

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2010
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.
