Background Decreased diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide (DLco) is associated with microvascular damage in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Balloon pulmonary ...

In the following years, signs of progression were observed, both in pulmonary function test results and on radiographic imaging (Figure 1D–1F). The patient demonstrated moderate exertional dyspnea ...
