Good outcomes and experience of Almazov Centre in treating patients with CTEPH are of interest to the global community because today there is little convincing evidence that such surgery is effective and safe. The presentation was followed by a lively discussion with Japanese colleagues who are pioneers in this field. Participation of our specialists in such events contributes to the development of scientific potential opening up new paths for the development of endovascular surgery.
