Rapidly progressive pulmonary hypertension and right ventricular failure in a heart and kidney transplant recipient

Abstract A 54‐year‐old man status post heart and kidney transplant presented with dyspnea. Imaging was consistent with lymphangitic carcinomatosis (LC), in the setting of biopsy proven adenocarcinoma. He developed pulmonary hypertension (PH) and died of right ventricular failure (RVF) 3 weeks later. Acute PH with radiographic features of LC in a high‐risk patient warrants expedited malignancy investigation
