    Author: Fedullo PF, Auger WR, Channick RN, Moser KM, Jamieson SW.
    Journal: Clin Chest Med; 1995 Jun; 16(2):353-74. PubMed ID: 7656546.
    Abstract:
    Chronic, major-vessel thromboembolic disease represents a potentially correctable form of pulmonary hypertension. A thorough understanding of the unique problems associated with each aspect of care in these patients is essential to ensure a minimal perioperative mortality and satisfactory long-term outcome. This article reviews the cause, natural history, evaluation, surgical management, and postoperative course of patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension undergoing thromboendarterectomy.
