초록

Background/Aims: Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the gold standard for treating chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) in Western countries. The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term outcomes of performing PEA on CTEPH patients in comparison with medical therapy at a single Korean center. Methods: This retrospective study included 88 CTEPH patients. These patients were classified into the PEA group (n = 37) or non-PEA group (i.e., medical therapy; n = 51). The clinical characteristics, hemodynamic data, and long-term survival rates were compared. Independent prognostic factors for CTEPH were also investigated. Results: CTEPH was not associated with either gender, and the mean age at diagnosis was $53.3{\pm}13.7years$. Echocardiography revealed that the mean peak velocity of the tricuspid regurgitation jet was $4.2{\pm}0.7m/sec$ and the mean pulmonary arterial pressure was $51.7{\pm}15.1mmHg$. The PEA and non-PEA groups demonstrated no significant differences, except in terms of the right ventricular end-diastolic diameter. The survival rates of the PEA group were significantly higher than the non-PEA group at 1, 3, 5, and 10 years (p = 0.032). Multivariate analyses indicated that World Health Organization class IV and PEA were significant predictors of poorer and better outcomes, respectively. Conclusions: PEA demonstrates more favorable effects on long-term survival than medical therapy in Korean CTEPH patients who were considered operable.
