[Advances in neuromodulation of pulmonary hypertension].

Pulmonary hypertension is a progressive disease characterized by an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance, leading to unfavorable pulmonary vascular remodeling. This condition eventually leads to right ventricular hypertrophy and ultimately death from right ventricular failure. Although the exact pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension remains unclear, autonomic nervous system dysfunction is recognized as one of the contributing factors. Increasing evidence supports the hypothesis that activation of the sympathetic nervous system plays a role in the development of pulmonary hypertension. In addition, pulmonary artery denervation has shown some effectiveness in the treatment of this condition. This article provides a comprehensive review of the neuroanatomical basis of the pulmonary vessels, the potential mechanisms underlying the onset and progression of pulmonary hypertension in relation to neuromodulation, and the application of neuromodulation techniques in its treatment.
