4 Dr. Roberto Carbone wishes to dedicate this book to parents Attilia and Giuseppe Carbone.

5 Preface Several years ago, Roberto Carbone began working on a book which would deal exclusively regarding pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease. He asked Drs. Baughman and Bottino to join in this effort as editors and we solicited chapters from experts around the world on this subject. This led to the first edition of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in Interstitial Lung Disease which was published in In this edition, Dr. Baughman and Carbone are joined by Dr. Steven Nathan as the third co-editor. Since that time, several studies have been published regarding the diagnosis and management of pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease. The terminology has changed and pulmonary arterial hypertension is reserved for WHO group 1 patients. Pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease is categorized as either group 3 (e.g. idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis) or group 5 (e.g. sarcoidosis). Thus, we have changed the title of our second edition to Pulmonary Hypertension in Interstitial Lung Disease. In addition to a new title and new co-editor, we have asked our contributors to provide a new version of their respective chapters, not just an update of the prior chapters. For many of the chapters, we sought new authors who have contributed to these respective areas. The book is divided into two main sections. The first section deals with general principles of diagnosis and management of pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease (PH ILD). Dr. Carbone and colleagues start with a chapter detailing the radiographic imaging seen in various interstitial lung diseases, with insights into how the pattern on high resolution computer tomography (HRCT) scan may help determine the underlying interstitial lung disease. Since patients with significant pulmonary hypertension are poor candidates for surgical biopsy or even bronchoscopic biopsy, many of the PH ILD patients are diagnosed based on HRCT. Dr. Engel describes the findings on heart catheterization which characterize pulmonary hypertension. This includes separating precapillary pulmonary hypertension from pulmonary hypertension due to left ventricular dysfunction. Although pulmonary pathology may not be available as part of the initial assessment of PH ILD, studies of pathology from biopsies and explanted lungs have provided insights into the vii

6 viii Preface cause(s) of pulmonary hypertension associated with specific interstitial lung diseases. This is detailed in the chapter by Dr. Nunes and colleagues. The last two chapters of the general section focus on therapy. Dr. Nathan s group provide a review of the evidence supporting various medical managements for treating pulmonary hypertension in different interstitial lung diseases. In the past few years, some drugs have been shown not only to be ineffective for pulmonary hypertension associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis but also to be potentially harmful. This is not a universal finding, since therapy for pulmonary hypertension with interstitial lung disease associated with scleroderma and sarcoidosis has had positive results. One potential treatment for PH ILD is transplant. Dr. Cordova and colleagues have reviewed this option in the last chapter in the general considerations section. The second half of the book deals with specific interstitial lung diseases. Dr. Wells group provide details regarding managing pulmonary hypertension in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and other idiopathic interstitial lung diseases. Dr. Baughman and colleagues discuss the evaluation and treatment of sarcoidosis- associated pulmonary hypertension. Dr. Selman s group discuss pulmonary hypertension in patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Dr. Highland and colleagues discuss pulmonary hypertension in interstitial lung disease associated with connective tissue disorders. Dr. Shlobin s group then address several other interstitial lung diseases associated with pulmonary hypertension. We believe this book will provide a framework for future studies in what is an important aspect of managing both interstitial lung disease and pulmonary hypertension. The editors wish to thank Stephanie Westendorf for all her help and support for this project. Cincinnati, OH, USA Genoa, Italy Falls Church, VA, USA Robert P. Baughman Roberto G. Carbone Steven D.
