Clinical narrative: Pulmonary Hypertension; This is a literature report.  A 56-year-old male patient received BNT162b2 (BNT162B2), in Apr2021 as dose 2, single (Batch/Lot number: unknown) for covid-19 immunisation. The patient's relevant medical history included: "non-smoker" (unspecified if ongoing); "spontaneous deep venous thrombosis" (unspecified if ongoing). The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. Vaccination history included: Bnt162b2 (DOSE 1, SINGLE), administration date: Apr2021, for COVID-19 Immunisation. The following information was reported: PULMONARY HYPERTENSION (medically significant, life threatening) with onset 2021, 12 days after the suspect product(s) administration, outcome "unknown". The patient underwent the following laboratory tests and procedures: Blood pressure systolic: (unspecified date) normal; Body mass index: (unspecified date) 25; Brain natriuretic peptide: (unspecified date) 99 pg/mL, notes: remained in normal range; Computerised tomogram thorax: (unspecified date) revealed mosaic attenuation of lung parenchyma, notes: with relative pruning of distal pulmonary vessels and mild enlargement of the PA without evidence of pulmonary emboli; Echocardiogram: (2005) normal; Ejection fraction: (unspecified date) 60 %; Haematology test: (unspecified date) identified no clotting abnormalities.; Evidence of Pulmonary Clots: (unspecified date) None; (Sep2021) 2.82, notes: Units: m/s; performed 5 months after vaccination; (Dec2021) 3.22, notes: Units: m/s; three months later; (Jul2022) 3.22, notes: Units: m/s; Fifteen months after vaccination; (unspecified date) negative for twelve genetic predisposition markers, notes; Magnetic resonance imaging heart: (unspecified date) revealed a mildly enlarged right ventricle with, notes: normal systolic function and normal main PA; (2005) an incidental isolated left superior vena cava was, notes: was suspected by an otherwise normal transthoracic echocardiogram and confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging; NYHA classification: (unspecified date) 2; Pulmonary arterial pressure: (unspecified date) normal; Pulmonary arterial pressure: (unspecified date) 44/18 mmHg, notes: mean 28 mm Hg; Right ventricular systolic pressure: (Sep2021) 40 mmHg, notes: performed 5 months after vaccination; (Dec2021) 46 mmHg, notes: three months later; (Jul2022) 49 mmHg, notes: Fifteen months after vaccination; SARS-CoV-2 test: (unspecified date) negative at the time of the onset of these symptom; Stress echocardiogram: (unspecified date) revealed normal left ventricular, notes: function, an ejection fraction (EF) of 60%, ventricular ectopy and mild right-sided chamber enlargement. No right-sided pressures were measured; Vascular resistance systemic: (unspecified date) 3.6, notes: Units: Woods units; Ventilation/perfusion scan: (unspecified date) was interpreted as near normal and a very low, notes: probability for pulmonary emboli. Therapeutic measures were taken as a result of pulmonary hypertension.; Sender's Comments: Based on the information available, a possible contributory role of the suspect drug for the reported event Pulmonary hypertension cannot be excluded.
