Core Tip |
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is increasingly recognised as a severe complication of hereditary haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT), but the true prevalence of PH in HHT is not known. Post-capillary PH most often results from the high cardiac output associated with hepatic arteriovenous malformations. More rarely the HHT gene mutations (ACRVL1 or ENG) result in pre-capillary pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Differentiation between post-capillary PH en pre-capillary PAH can be done by right heart catheterisation, and is of importance since both entities are associated with severe morbidity and mortality and have different options for treatments. |
