Factors associated with diagnosis and operability of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension A case-control study
Original language description
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) and idiopathic pulmonary hypertension (IPAH) share a similar clinical presentation, and a differential diagnosis requires a thorough workup. Once CTEPH is confirmed, patients who can be safely operated have to be identified. We investigated risk factors associated with CTEPH and IPAH, and the criteria for the selection of operable CTEPH patients. This case-control study included 436 consecutive patients with CTEPH and 158 with IPAH in eight Europeancentres, between 2006 and 2010. Conditions identified as risk factors for CTEPH included history of acute venous thromboembolism (p < 0.0001), large size of previous pulmonary embolism (p = 0.0040 in univariate analysis), blood groups non-O (p < 0.0001 in univariate analysis), and older age (p = 0.0198), whereas diabetes mellitus (p = 0.0006), female gender (p = 0.0197) and higher mean pulmonary artery pressure (p = 0.0103) were associated with increased likelihood for an IPAH diagnosis.
