Persistence of pulmonary hypertension in patients with ventricular septal defect after intracardiac repair: insights from a long-term follow-up study

Most patients with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary hypertension had resolution after intracardiac repair; however, residual pulmonary hypertension occurred in about 2.6% during long-term follow-up. Preoperative hemodynamics did not predict persistence. Long-term periodic follow-up remains important after surgery.

Abstract

Most patients with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary hypertension had resolution after intracardiac repair; however, residual pulmonary hypertension occurred in about 2.6% during long-term follow-up. Preoperative hemodynamics did not predict persistence. Long-term periodic follow-up remains important after surgery.
