Summary

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a form of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in which the pulmonary thrombus fails to resolve, resulting in occlusion and remodelling of pulmonary arteries.¹ Timely diagnosis is critical since it is potentially curable by pulmonary thromboendarterectomy. Twenty five per cent of cases do not have a history of thromboembolic event. The diagnosis should be considered in the diagnostic work-up of PAH despite lack of history of episodes of thromboembolism. Here we are reporting a case of CTEPH with multiple systemic to pulmonary collaterals delineated by angiogram and CT.
