Undiagnosed PAPVD with or without ASD may be present in patients with suspected PH; cross-sectional imaging should therefore be specifically assessed whenever this diagnosis is considered. Radiological and physiological markers of L-R shunt are higher in patients with an associated SV-ASD. Although many patients with PAPVD and PH may have other potential causes of PH, a proportion of patients diagnosed with PAH have isolated PAPVD in the absence of other causative conditions.
