Central Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation and Early Rehabilitation for Persistent Severe Pulmonary Hypertension Following Pulmonary Endarterectomy [PDF]

Acute and Critical Care, 2019
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is potentially curable with a pulmonary endarterectomy. However, approximately 20% of patients have persistent pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy, which is a major risk factor for ...

Effects of pulmonary endarterectomy on pulmonary hemodynamics in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, evaluated by interventricular septum curvature

Pulmonary Circulation, 2020
The interventricular septum curvature, measured in images of electrocardiogram-gated 320-slice multidetector computed tomography, is reportedly useful and less invasive than right heart catheterization, as it could provide clues regarding pulmonary ...

Endobronchial blocker use for massive, focal pulmonary hemorrhage during pulmonary endarterectomy for CTEPH

, 2022
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) has a poor prognosis if left untreated but can be cured by pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA). Massive endobronchial pulmonary hemorrhage is a potentially fatal complication of PEA, occurring in 0.5%of ...

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension following pulmonary embolism with a right ventricular thrombus: A report of two cases

Pulmonary Circulation, 2021
Right heart thrombus accompanied by chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is a rare entity. Right heart thrombus may develop in the peripheral veins or in situ within the right heart chambers. The diagnosis of right heart thrombus is challenging,

Pulmonary endarterectomy after pulmonary infectious embolisms [PDF]

Interactive CardioVascular and Thoracic Surgery, 2012
Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is a well-established procedure in the treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTPH). The procedure is known to increase functional outcome and to raise the 5-year survival rate. We report 2 cases of pulmonary valve endocarditis and secondary embolisms causing sustained pulmonary hypertension.
