Whipple’s Disease-Associated Pulmonary Hypertension with Positive Vasodilator Response Despite Severe Hemodynamic Derangements
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with Whipple’s disease (WD-PH) is extremely rare, and the underlying pathophysiological processes are incompletely understood. Alterations in hemodynamics can be severe, with right ventricular (RV) dysfunction being common. A case involving a 23-year-old man wi...
