2. | Predictors of postoperative outcome after pulmonary endarterectomy from 14 year-experience with 280 patients |
| Takashi Kunihara, Julia Gerdts, Heinrich Groesdonk, Frank Langer, Dietmar Tscholl, Diana Aicher, Hans-Joachim Schäfers |
| Postoperative outcome after pulmonary endarterectomy for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is difficult to predict. We established database of these patients and attempted to analyze specific findings to predict mortality/morbidity and hemodynamic improvement after pulmonary endarterectomy. |
