Inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension treated with riociguat: A case study
A 51-year-old woman presented with a one-year history of progressive dyspnea, WHO functional class III-IV and exercise-related syncope. Transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography pulmonary angiography were performed, leading to a diagnosis of

ABSTRACT Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a distinct subtype of pulmonary hypertension arising from persistent major pulmonary artery obstruction after pulmonary embolism. Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) remains the standard of care, but up to 40% of patients in European and US registries are inoperable; balloon pulmonary ...

ABSTRACT Background Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease (CTEPD) leads to chronic total occlusions (CTOs) of the pulmonary arteries in a minority of patients. Treatment of CTOs with balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) may substantially improve patient hemodynamics but presents unique technical challenges and has previously been associated with a ...

ABSTRACT Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a rare, potentially curable form of pulmonary hypertension, with limited data in pregnancy. We describe a 37‐year‐old woman with progressive dyspnea, back pain, and cough, whose evaluation revealed severe right ventricular enlargement, high pulmonary pressures, and extensive V/Q ...

Riociguat increases lung tissue cGMP levels.
Riociguat significantly increased cGMP concentration in hyperoxia-exposed rats as compared with placebo treated hyperoxic rats. *P < 0.05 compared with hyperoxia + placebo (n = 4/group).
