pulmonary artery vasculopathy

Pulmonary artery vasculopathy refers to the abnormal changes and narrowing of the blood vessels in the lungs, specifically the pulmonary arteries. This condition can lead to high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension), making it difficult for the heart to pump blood through these vessels. It can cause symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and dizziness. Various factors, including chronic lung diseases, genetic disorders, and lifestyle choices, can contribute to its development. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to manage the condition and improve quality of life.
