Pulmonary hypertension is a condition characterised by elevated pulmonary arterial pressures secondary to various aetiologies; the most common ones are left heart diseases. Similarly, an association between thyroid diseases and pulmonary hypertension has been reported in some cases, but the pathophysiological relationship has not been fully elucidated. Etiological investigation is an important step in the management of pulmonary hypertension and determines the appropriate treatment. In this report, we present a case of severe pulmonary hypertension in a 57-year-old woman, in which mixed aortic valve disease and hypothyroidism were involved.
肺动脉高压是一种由于各种病因导致肺动脉压力升高的疾病;最常见的病因是左心疾病。同样,甲状腺疾病与肺动脉高压之间的关联在某些病例中已有报道,但病理生理关系尚未完全阐明。病因调查是肺动脉高压管理中的重要一步,决定了适当的治疗方法。在本报告中,我们呈现了一例57岁女性的重度肺动脉高压病例,该病例合并了主动脉瓣疾病和甲状腺功能减退。
