Descriptive Analysis of Oxygen Dependency and Hemodynamic Changes Following Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension Patients. [PDF]
Background Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is characterized by persistent clot burden and secondary vascular remodeling. Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) remains the preferred curative treatment for CTEPH. This study presents a

Echo-Doppler Predictors of Residual Pulmonary Hypertension After Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy [PDF]
Background: Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) remains the preferred treatment for surgical accessible thrombus in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). However, residual pulmonary hypertension (PH) can persist post-PTE.
