Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is defined as a mean pulmonary artery pressure ≥25 mm Hg and pulmonary artery wedge pressure ≤15 mm Hg in the presence of occlusive thrombi within the pulmonary arteries. Surgical pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) is considered the best treatment option for CTEPH.
