Textbook of Pulmonary Vascular Disease - Springer 2011
The major function of the lungs is gas exchange and it does this using a low resistance circulation.The pulmonary circulation (or the pulmonary vasculature) is a unique system that differs dramatically from the systemic circulatory system (e.g., coronary, cerebral, renal arteries) in
structure, function, and regulation. A typical example of functional differences between the pulmonary and systemic vasculature is that hypoxia causes pulmonary vasoconstriction but systemic vasodilation. Furthermore, in patients with systemic arterial hypertension (e.g.,
essential hypertension), pulmonary arterial pressure is normal, while in patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (previously referred to as primary pulmonary hypertension), systemic arterial pressure is usually within the normal range.
