Eisenmenger Reaction
The Eisenmenger reaction is the consequence of a congenital heart defect that, by allowing abnormal passage of blood between the heart's chambers, over time raises the pressure in the lungs and reverses the direction of blood flow.
Common symptoms: difficulty breathing with exertion, bluish discoloration of the skin and lips, fatigue, and dizziness.
When to see a doctor? Follow-up is important if there is a known congenital heart disease and new respiratory symptoms appear.
Which specialist treats it? The cardiologist and, in childhood, the pediatric cardiologist with the pediatrician lead the follow-up, with the involvement of the vascular surgeon depending on the case. Close professional evaluation is recommended.
