Analysis of Clinical Characteristics and Follow-Up Study on Treatment of Nonthrombotic Obstructive Pulmonary Hypertension: Interventional Study
Through a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, this study aiming to evaluated the efficacy and safety of rituximab lymph node injection combined with pulmonary vascular interventional therapy in treating fibrosing mediastinal pulmonary hypertension (FM-PH).Eligible participants were randomly assigned to either the combined treatment group, receiving both pulmonary vascular intervention and rituximab lymph node injection, or the interventional-only group, which received pulmonary vascular intervention alone. At 3, 6, and 12 months post-treatment, the efficacy was assessed based on symptom improvement, hemodynamic changes, lesion volume reduction, etc. Safety was mainly evaluated by comparing adverse event incidence between the two groups.
• Diagnosed with fibrosing mediastinitis between November 2024 and November 2026, aged between 18 and 85 years.
• The patient presented with symptoms of chest tightness, shortness of breath, and reduced exercise tolerance.
• Chest CT revealed mediastinal lymph node compression of the pulmonary artery, with evidence of pulmonary hypertension consistent with the patient's symptoms.
• The subject signed the informed consent form prior to participation and is able to comply with the study protocol and one-year follow-up.
