Outcomes of Pulmonary Endarterectomy Surgery
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2006Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension has emerged as one of the leading causes of severe pulmonary hypertension. This disease is estimated to occur in approximately 1 to 5% of all patients who have previously developed an acute pulmonary embolism, although the true prevalence is suspected to be much higher.

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is an underdiagnosed condition. Patients typically present with the symptoms of right heart failure. Diagnosis is usually done by radionuclide ventilation/perfusion (VQ) scan, high-quality multidetector computed tomography (CT) or pulmonary angiography at expert centers. Pulmonary endarterectomy remains the

Perioperative Management in Pulmonary Endarterectomy
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2023AbstractPulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the treatment of choice for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PH), provided lesions are proximal enough in the pulmonary vasculature to be surgically accessible and the patient is well enough to benefit from the operation in the longer term.

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is a condition that is recognised in an increased percentage of patients. Pulmonary endarterectomy is recognised as being the only curative option for a subgroup of those patients, but anaesthesiologists and intensivists face many challenges in how they manage these patients perioperatively.

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2008
Pulmonary endarterectomy is the treatment of choice for many patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. Although potentially curative, some patients receive no benefit and have poor outcomes. This review will look at the new research in the pathophysiology of the disease and developments in perioperative care, which may help to ...

Anaesthesia management for pulmonary endarterectomy
Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2005Options for the surgical treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension are either lung transplantation or pulmonary endarterectomy. Pulmonary endarterectomy is considered permanently curative and the treatment of choice. The procedure dramatically improves functional status and provides an excellent immediate and long-term survival, much ...

Evaluation of Patients for Pulmonary Endarterectomy
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2006Chronic thromboembolic obstruction of the pulmonary vascular bed has been increasingly recognized as a treatable form of pulmonary hypertension, with surgery referred to as a pulmonary endarterectomy. Careful evaluation of patients with pulmonary hypertension and proper selection of those with surgically accessible, chronic thromboembolic disease are ...

Pulmonary endarterectomy in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension
The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2018Management and outcome of patients with operable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) who underwent pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) at a large German referral center were investigated.In Germany, 394 PEAs were performed in 2014 and 2015 with an in-hospital mortality rate of 5.8%.

Anesthesia for Pulmonary Endarterectomy
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2006Anesthetic care for patients undergoing pulmonary endarterectomy represents one of the most challenging tasks in cardiac anesthesia. Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension with its concomitant right ventricular failure may cause hemodynamic instability during anesthetic induction and the precardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) period, and the associated

Reoperative pulmonary endarterectomy
4.3 Pulmonary Circulation and Pulmonary Vascular Diseases, 2016Background: Recurrent symptomatic pulmonary hypertension is uncommon after primary pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA). We reviewed our experience with patients undergoing repeat PEA to determine the risk factors for recurrent disease, and the outcome of reoperative PEA.
