Summary

Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) emerged as a potential therapeutic option for non-operable patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).

The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BPA in patients disqualified from surgery or suffered from persistent CTEPH despite pulmonary endarterectomy.

This is a interventional study analyzing the benefits and the risk of BPA. Clinical evaluation, including: functional capacity, 6-minutes walking test, haemodynamics, biomarkers, cardiopulmonary exercise test, echocardiography, electrocardiography and QoL assessment with Short Form 36 (SF36) questionnaire was performed before the initiation therapy of BPA, and 3-6 months after last session of BPA.
