Long-term sildenafil therapy for pulmonary veno-occlusive disease in association with melphalan therapy for multiple myeloma: A case report [PDF]
Pulmonary veno-occlusive disease has a significantly worse prognosis than idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension. According to a case series from France, the median survival time from diagnosis to death or lung transplantation was only 1 year, and in

Trichloroethylene increases pulmonary endothelial permeability: implication for pulmonary veno-occlusive disease [PDF]
Trichloroethylene exposure is a major risk factor for pulmonary veno-occlusive disease. We demonstrated that trichloroethylene alters the endothelial barrier integrity, at least in part, through vascular endothelial (VE)-Cadherin internalisation, and ...
