Abstract Background Balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) has recently been developed as an alternative and less-invasive treatment strategy for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) but therapeutic efficacy and technical safety of the technique have to be established. Purpose To examine the effects of BPA on patients with inoperable disease or residual pulmonary hypertension (PH) after pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA). Methods From June 2015 to January 2019 we enrolled symptomatic (WHO-FC ≥II) inoperable CTEPH patients and patients with residual PH after PEA. At baseline and after 3 months after last BPA session all patients underwent clinical evaluation, six-minute walking distance (6MWD) and right heart catheterization. For comparisons Friedman test (with Bonferroni post-hoc pairwise analysis) was used. Results Forty-one patients [male 49%, median age 65 (52–75) years, 34 inoperable and 7 with residual PH after PEA] were treated for a total of 111 sessions (median number of sessions for each patient: 2); during each session we treated 2 (2.0–2.5) vessels. Results are shown in the Table. Forty patients were treated with medical therapy before BPA (16 with combination therapy). Four pulmonary artery dissection and 2 haemoptysis with clinical impairment were documented during the procedures; 27 patients had lung injury (radiographic opacity with/without hemoptysis and/or hypoxemia), none had renal dysfunction, 6 patients had access site complications. Five patients died during follow-up (none within 30 days from the procedure) because of sepsis (1), heart failure (1), cancer (1), arrhythmic storm (1) and sudden death in a patients with severe coronary atherosclerosis (1).

Conclusions BPA is a safe and effective treatment able to improve symptoms and hemodynamic profile in inoperable CTEPH patients and in patients with residual PH after PEA.
