BACKGROUND: Portopulmonary hypertension (PoPH) is a rare condition with poorer survival compared to idiopathic/familial pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH/FPAH).
AIMS: To compare the characteristics, survival, prognostic factors and management of PoPH and IPAH/FPAH patients and to assess the impact of treatment on survival of PoPH patients.
METHODS: Analysis of data of prevalent and incident PoPH patients enrolled in the Spanish registry of PAH (REHAP) from January 1998 to December 2017 and comparison with IPAH/FPAH patients. Variables analysed: patient and disease (PAH and liver) characteristics, first-line PAH-targeted therapy, causes of death, prognostic factors and survival (according to aetiology and treatment in PoPH patients).
RESULTS: Compared to IPAH/FPAH patients (n = 678), patients with PoPH (n = 237) were predominantly men, older and had better functional class and higher prevalence of ascites. Haemodynamics were better. Biomarkers for heart failure were worse. Age- and sex-adjusted 5-year survival rate from diagnosis was 49.3% for PoPH patients and 68.7% for IPAH patients (P < 0.001). Treated PoPH had better survival than non-treated. PAH- and liver-related causes accounted for 30.2% and 24.7% of deaths in PoPH patients. PoPH patients were less likely to receive first-line PAH-targeted therapy and this was associated with greater mortality. Increasing age, worse exercise capacity and ascites were independent prognostic factors of poorer survival; first-line oral monotherapy was associated with improved survival. Eight (3.4%) PoPH patients underwent liver transplantation.
CONCLUSIONS: PoPH patients are undertreated and show poorer survival than IPAH/FPAH patients. First-line treatment with PAH-targeted therapy was associated with better survival. Presence of ascites was a predictor of mortality.
