Overview
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a multifactorial disease involving genetic and environmental risk factors. Risk factors for pulmonary arterial hypertension include BMPR2 mutation, connective tissue disease, HIV infection, portal hypertension, fenfluramine use, and congenital heart disease with shunt. Left heart and lung diseases are risk factors for PH. Patients with a hypercoagulable state (such as the presence of lupus anticoagulant, deficiency of protein C, protein S, or antithrombin III, chronic inflammatory disorders, myeloproliferative syndromes, and splenectomy) are at an increased risk for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.[1]
Risk Factors
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
- BMPR2 gene mutation
- ALK1 gene mutation
- Connective tissue disease
- HIV infection
- Portal hypertension
- Congenital heart disease
- Schistosomiasis
- Chronic hemolytic anemia
- Drugs and toxins
Shown below is a table summarizing the list of drugs associated with PAH.
| Definite risk | Possible risk | Likely risk | Unlikely risk |
|
Pulmonary hypertension due to Left Heart Disease
Pulmonary Hypertension due to Lung Diseases and/or Hypoxia
- Alveolar hypoventilation disorders
- Chronic exposure to high altitude
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
- Developmental abnormalities
- Interstitial lung disease
- Pulmonary diseases with mixed restrictive and obstructive pattern
- Sleep related breathing problems
Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
PH with Unclear and/or Multifactorial Mechanisms
- Myeloproliferative disease
- Splenectomy
- Sarcoidosis
- Histiocytosis
- Lymphangioleiomyomatosis
- Neurofibromatosis
- Vasculitis
- Glycogen storage disease
- Gaucher disease
- Thyroid disorder
- Obstruction by tumor
- Fibrosing mediastinitis
- Chronic renal failure on dialysis
