Overview
Patients with severe WHO functional class II or III pulmonary hypertension (PH) refractory to medical therapy are candidates for surgical intervention, such as atrial septostomy or lung transplantation. Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) is a surgical procedure that is used for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.
Surgery
Surgical intervention such as atrial septostomy or lung transplantation should be considered among patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who fail to improve on optimal therapy or when medical therapy is unavailable.[1]
Failure of clinical improvement among PAH patients with WHO functional class II or III is defined as either:[1]
- A stable and unsatisfactory clinical status, or
- An unstable and deteriorating status
Failure of clinical improvement among PAH patients with WHO functional class IV is defined as either:[1]
- Absence of quick improvement to a WHO functional class III or less, or
- A stable and unsatisfactory clinical status
Atrial Septostomy
- Atrial septostomy is a surgical procedure that creates a shunt between the right and left atria.
- It relieves pressure on the right side of the heart, but at the cost of lower oxygen levels in blood (hypoxia). It is best performed in experienced centers.
- Graded balloon dilatation of atrial septostomy is the recommended type of atrial septostomy.[2]
- Atrial septostomy might be considered among PH patients with WHO functional class IV and right heart failure refractory to therapy.[3]
- Atrial septostomy should also be considered among PH patients who have Eisenmenger's syndrome, idiopathic PAH, and those awaiting lung transplantation.[1]
Lung Transplantation
- Lung transplantation is considered in the treatment of patients with idiopathic PH, PH associated with congenital heart disease, or pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) who fail to improve on optimal medical therapy.
- Combined lung and heart transplantation might be considered in selected patients.[1]
- According to the Registry of the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation, the survival rates following lung transplantation are 61%, 49%, and 25 % at 3, 5, and 10 years respectively.[4]
- If patients present with rapidly progressing disease, pulmonary transplantation should be considered earlier.[5]
Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy
- Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) is a surgical procedure that is used for the treatment of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.
- It is the surgical removal of an organized thrombus along with the lining of the pulmonary artery.
- PTE is a large and very difficult procedure that is currently performed in a few select centers. Case series show remarkable success in most patients.
- Treatment for hypoxic and miscellaneous varieties of PH have not been established. However, studies of several agents are currently enrolling patients. Many physicians will treat these diseases with the same medications as for PAH, until better options become available.
