Abstract | Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is defined by the presence of a mean pulmonary arterial pressure >20 mmHg. Current guidelines describe five groups of PH with shared pathophysiological and clinical features. In this paper, the first of a series covering all five PH classification groups, the clinical, radiological and pathological features of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) will be reviewed. PAH may develop in the presence of associated medical conditions or a family history, following exposure to certain medications or drugs, or may be idiopathic in nature. Although all forms of PAH share common histopathological features, the presence of certain pulmonary arterial abnormalities, such as plexiform lesions, and extent of co-existing pulmonary venous involvement differs between the different subgroups. Radiological investigations are key to diagnosing the correct form of PH and a systematic approach to interpretation, especially of computed tomography, is essential. |
