A pilot cohort study assessing the feasibility of complete revascularization with balloon pulmonary angioplasty for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.

Balloon pulmonary angioplasty improves prognosis by alleviating pulmonary hypertension in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, even with incomplete revascularization. However, hypoxia or the requirement for pulmonary vasodilators often remain even after pulmonary hypertension...

However, hypoxia or the requirement for pulmonary vasodilators often remain even after pulmonary hypertension relief. With this cohort study, we aimed to examine whether complete revascularization by additional balloon pulmonary angioplasty on residual lesions, even after pulmonary hypertension relief, could resolve hypoxia or the requirement for pulmonary vasodilators. During complete revascularization with balloon pulmonary angioplasty in 42 patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, we investigated therapeutic effects at baseline (T1), pulmonary hypertension relief phase (T2), and at 6 months post-final balloon pulmonary angioplasty (T3). The pulmonary hypertension relief phase was defined as the first time that a mean pulmonary artery pressure ≤ 25 mmHg or pulmonary vascular resistance ≤ 240 dyn-s/cm5 was reached in right heart catheterization before balloon pulmonary angioplasty. The partial pressure of oxygen increased progressively over T1, T2, and T3 (59.2±8.5, 69.0±9.7, and 80.0±9.5 mmHg, respectively; P<0.001 T2 vs. T3). Minimum oxygen saturation levels during the 6-minute walk distance test were 87% (81‒89%), 88% (84‒92%), and 91% (89‒93.3%), respectively (P<0.001 T2 vs. T3), with gradual increase in the 6-minute walk distance (346±125 m, 404±90 m, 454±101 m, respectively; P<0.001 T2 vs. T3). The percentages of patients using pulmonary vasodilators (54.8%, 45.2%, 4.8%, respectively; P<0.001 T2 vs. T3) and requiring oxygen therapy (26%, 26%, 7%, respectively; P = 0.008 T2 vs. T3) decreased significantly without hemodynamic exacerbation or major complications. Despite the discontinuation of pulmonary vasodilators, mean pulmonary artery pressure improved (36.0 [31.0‒41.3], 21.4±4.2, 18.5±3.6 mmHg, respectively; P<0.001 T2 vs. T3). Complete revascularization with balloon pulmonary angioplasty beyond pulmonary hypertension relief benefits patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension; it may improve oxygenation and exercise capacity, and reduce the need for pulmonary vasodilators and oxygen therapy.Shinya FujiiShinya NagayoshiKazuo OgawaMakoto MutoToshikazu D TanakaKosuke MinaiMakoto KawaiMichihiro YoshimuraPublic Library of Science (PLoS)articleMedicineRScienceQENPLoS ONE, Vol 16, Iss 7, p e0254770 (2021)
