An unexpected cause of pulmonary hypertension in a young woman: a case report.

studies have documented tumoural emboli in pulmonary microcirculation in ∼26% of patients with a solid tumour, markedly associated with adenocarcinoma. Prompt initiation of cancer treatment on tumoural PH is essential. To our knowledge, this report documents the first full recovery of tumoural PH at rest after successful cancer treatment and temporary specific PH medication. We therefore conclude that a multidisciplinary approach with an initially combined oncologic and PH therapy may be most beneficial with the potential of complete remission of PH.
