Congenital Heart Disease and Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesCardiology Clinics, 2020
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is common in adults with congenital heart disease and carries fundamental implications for management and prognosis. A high index of suspicion, combined with knowledge of the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of PH, is required to achieve a timely, accurate diagnosis, and appropriate classification and treatment.
