Tumour microembolism presenting as "primary pulmonary hypertension".

M Hibbert1, S Braude.   

Abstract

Pulmonary tumour microembolism is a rare cause of pulmonary hypertension. A case of rapidly progressive pulmonary hypertension in a patient with a past history of breast carcinoma is presented. Despite active consideration and investigation for malignancy as a cause, correct diagnosis was only made at necropsy.
