Abstract
The present shunt-related model successfully simulated a hypertensive status in pulmonary circulation and reproduced the characteristic transition of pulmonary vasculopathy from reversibility to irreversibility within a relatively short period. Thus, this model could offer an alternative with low mortality and high reproducibility for investigations on the underling mechanisms of shunt-related pulmonary hypertension.
