Introduction: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is thought to result from incomplete resolution of vascular obstruction following acute pulmonary embolism (PE). However, at least 25% of CTEPH patients do not have a documented episode of acute venous thromboembolism (VTE). We hypothesized that patients without a VTE in their past medical history have different clinical and radiological characteristics compared to CTEPH patients with previous acute VTE.

Background: There is no consensus on the preferred conduit for right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction for congenital cardiac disease.
Case Summary: We present a case of a 21-year-old woman with history of tetralogy of Fallot presenting with recurrent graft thrombosis and pulmonary emboli in the setting of RVOT reconstruction with a 20-mm expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) valved conduit (GORE PV1, W.L.

Carotid endarterectomy remains the gold standard treatment for carotid stenosis. Although transfemoral carotid artery stenting is a valid alternative for high-surgical-risk patients, transcarotid artery revascularization (TCAR) has shown promising results. Clinical case: 68-year-old male with hypertension and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who developed a stroke due to a severe high stenosis in the right internal carotid artery.

Objectives: Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is a rare disease, characterized by delays in diagnosis and curative surgical treatment. After establishing a surgical pulmonary endarterectomy centre in Switzerland and due to a historically low resection rate of 14%, a national multidisciplinary evaluation board was established in January 2018. Herein, we summarize the impact of the board on our programme.
