Pulmonary arterial hypertension-associated genetic variants in combined post-capillary and pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension: a case report.

ABSTRACT: Predisposing factors for the development of a pre-capillary component in pulmonary hypertension associated with left heart disease remain elusive. We report the case of a patient with persistent combined post-capillary and pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension after cardiac transplantation, in whom a rare BMPR2 variant was found.
