摘要：

Patients with Eisenmenger syndrome do much better than patients with all other etiologies of severe pulmonary hypertension. The primary reason, and a major focus of this review, is the right ventricle, a remarkable chamber with preserved systolic function despite a lifetime of systemic level pulmonary hypertension.
