[A case of primary pulmonary hypertension in a patient with Raynaud's disease]. 1989

W Tłustochowicz, and A Cwetsch

A case of a 50-year female patient with Raynaud's disease is presented. The primary pulmonary hypertension accompanying the underlying condition suggests that the excessive contractibility of the vessels, typical for the Raynaud's disease, may play a role in the etiology of the primary pulmonary hypertension.
