Abstract
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a complication of pulmonary embolism. A deep vein thrombosis diagnosis due to uterine myoma compressing the inferior vena cava and an accompanying pulmonary artery thrombotic embolism was treated with hysterectomy and warfarin, which caused bleeding. While initially overlooked, a CTEPH diagnosis was reached.
