Introduction: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a devastating, progressive disease with increasingly debilitating symptoms and eventually death due to a narrowing of the pulmonary vasculature and consequent right heart failure. The epidemiology of PH in low-to-middle income countries is unknown, but recent data suggest a high prevalence in the African continent. We assessed the prevalence, and characteristics of PH in patients attending the rural Cardiac centre of Shisong, Cameroon.
