Core Tip |
Oxidant injury, inflammation, impaired nitric oxide bioavailability and coagulopathy that occur in hematological diseases lead to endothelial dysfunction and thrombo-embolism with subsequent development of pulmonary hypertension (PH). In addition, treatment used for these disorders such as immunosuppressive drugs, splenectomy, bone marrow transplantation and radiation therapy are also known to cause endothelial damage and thrombo-embolism leading to PH. Furthermore, there is a causal relationship between vascular and hematopoietic systems. Patients with chronic myeloproliferative diseases are at a risk of developing PH; and the occurrence of myelofibrosis contributing to impaired hematopoiesis is not uncommon in PH.
