Pulmonary hypertension is divided into five groups depending on the cause. Group one, or idiopathic pulmonary hypertension, may be caused by a genetic mutation, certain prescription drugs, or heart abnormalities at birth. Group two is caused by left-sided heart disease. Lung disease, sleep apnea, and emphysema cause Group three. Group four is caused by chronic blood clots. Group five is caused by blood disorders, metabolic disorders, sarcoidosis and other conditions affecting the body's organs, and tumors pressing on pulmonary arteries.
