Abstract:

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), a relatively rare, potentially life-threatening disease of the pulmonary vasculature, is a distinct entity (group 4) in the classification of pulmonary hypertension. The main clinical manifestations were dyspnea, fatigue and decreased exercise tolerance. Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) is an established management to treat patients with inoperable CTEPH. In this review, the indication, the therapeutic effect for different lesion types, safety, complications and the corresponding measures, technical and clinical challenges, as well as the prospects of the technique were discussed.

Key words: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, Pulmonary endarterectomy, Balloon pulmonary angioplasty
