Abstract
In this article there was presented a clinical case of the chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) in the patient with small arteries damage. The thromb visualization was done by the lung perfusion multispiral computer tomography. The general positions of the definition, the diagnosis and treatment of the CTEPH were elucidated too. It was stated the CTEPH is a potential curable disease in case of the surgery in time. But there are some situations when it is not possible to provide the surgery and, in this case, the CTEPH treatment by specific pulmonary hypertension drugs could be used
