    Author: Giardelli G, Nicod L, Lehr HA, Bize P, Waeber G.
    Journal: Rev Med Suisse; 2009 Oct 28; 5(223):2166, 2168-70. PubMed ID: 19968030.
    Abstract:
    The case of a patient with severe pulmonary hypertension whose etiology has remained unknown until an autopsy was performed is discussed in a symposium of pathological anatomy. This case helped to address the diagnostic and therapeutic management of pulmonary hypertension. The broad differential diagnosis of this disease requires a diagnostic strategy to be developped. Clinical reasoning leading to a probable diagnosis based on clinical biological and radiological information is not only a difficult task for the speaker but also a rich source of learning opportunities for our medical community.
