Abstract
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a life-threatening form of pulmonary hypertension, caused by obstruction of the large and/or medium pulmonary arteries by organized thrombi. Currently, a multimodal approach, including surgical and endovascular treatment, using modern specific drugs has improved treatment results. This clinical case demonstrates the successful treatment with triple PAH-specific therapy and balloon angioplasty of the pulmonary arteries in the patient with severe CTEPH associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and antiphospholipid syndrome.
