“…There are cases in pediatric population with up to 7 years of follow-up after such procedures [11][12][13]. In most patients with symptomatic PH drug treatment typical for primary pulmonary arterial hypertention (PAH) gives good results [3,14]. In case of repeated hemoptysis the embolization of visualized in angiography collateral vessels is safe and effective [15].…”
