Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension : current diagnostic and treatment options: A review

The article reviews current approaches to diagnosing and treating chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). The definition of the CTEPH is given, and its main risk factors are described. It is shown that the modern algorithm of diagnostic search includes four stages; the examination methods used at each stage are characterized. The most rational approach to CTEPH therapy is provided; the possibilities and limitations of pulmonary endarterectomy, transluminal balloon angioplasty of the pulmonary arteries, and specific therapy of pulmonary hypertension in such patients are described. The clinical presentation and treatment of CTEPH according to the Russian Pulmonary Hypertension Registry are reviewed.
