[Diagnosis and Treatment of Pulmonary Embolism and Pulmonary Hypertension in Patients With Interstitial Lung Disease]
Abstract
Pulmonary embolism (PE) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) are common comorbidities that worsen the prognosis of patients diagnosed with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Despite advances in the diagnosis and treatment of these entities, their impact on the management and progression of ILD is not sufficiently studied. This article includes a review and update of the diagnosis and treatment of PE and PH in patients with underlying ILD.
La tromboembolia de pulmón (TEP) y la hipertensión pulmonar (HP) son comorbilidades frecuentes que empeoran el pronóstico de los pacientes diagnosticados de enfermedad pulmonar intersticial difusa (EPID). Pese a los avances en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de estas entidades, su impacto en el manejo y la progresión de la EPID no está suficientemente estudiado. Este artículo incluye una revisión y actualización del diagnóstico y tratamiento de la TEP y de la HP en pacientes con EPID de base.
