Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Disease: Success Rate and Complications among Different Patient Populations
BPA was safe and effective for all CTEPD groups with less improvement for the PEA-CTEPH and NoPH-CTEPD groups. The success rate of BPA was lower in the PEA-CTEPH group and the complication rate was lower in the NoPH-CTEPD group. Pre-BPA treatment to lower pulmonary artery pressure should not be overlooked in CTEPD patients.
