Imaging findings
A perfusion scan showed some abnormal parts, particularly in the right artery, indicating perfusion defects. The CT showed some peripheral calcium. The case then showed the substantial old thrombus material removed during pulmonary thromboendarterectomy.
Key takeaways
This case demonstrates chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) with the ultimate correlation of substantial old thrombus material removed during pulmonary thromboendarterectomy from both right and left pulmonary arteries.
