The changing landscape of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension management

European Respiratory Review, 2017
For patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), the current standard of care involves surgical removal of fibro-thrombotic obstructions by pulmonary endarterectomy.

Interplay of Probe Stability and Oscillation During Very‐High‐Power Short‐Duration Ablation in Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Atrial Fibrillation

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 988-999, July 2026.
This graphical abstract presents a comprehensive analysis of probe stability and oscillation during very high‐power short‐duration (vHPSD) pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) for atrial fibrillation. The findings indicate that oscillation velocity serves as a more reliable predictor of impedance drop and temperature changes than contact force alone ...

Successful Pulmonary Endarterectomy in a Patient with Klinefelter Syndrome

Case Reports in Pulmonology, 2012
Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is a frequent genetic disorder due to one or more supernumerary X chromosomes. KS is associated with an increased risk for venous thromboembolic events like deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism.

A Technical Modification for Establishing Selective Antegrade Cerebral Perfusion during Pulmonary Endarterectomy

The Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgeon Reports, 2016
Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) due to chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is mainly performed in deep hypothermic circulatory arrest without additional cerebroprotective means.

Riociguat: an upcoming therapy in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension?

European 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.

Thrombophilia and pulmonary endarterectomy.

Prague medical report, 2009
In the present study, we compared groups of patients with and without thrombophilia, who underwent pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA), definitive treatment for chronic pulmonary hypertension resulting from thromboembolic disease.Between September 2004 and June 2007, we operated 54 patients with CTEPH. We divided our patients into three groups.

Surgical and post-operative treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

European Respiratory Review, 2010
Patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) have fibrous obstructions in their proximal pulmonary arteries, as well as a variable degree of secondary vascular remodelling of distal, surgically inaccessible, small pulmonary vessels.
