Early progressive pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is often observed in patients with heterotaxy/polysplenia especially who have an intracardiac systemic-to-pulmonary shunt. However, its etiology is uncertain and its management is not well established. There was only a Japanese report about PAH in consecutive patients with heterotaxy/polysplenia syndrome [1]. They seemed to develop pulmonary vascular obstructive disease earlier and more severe than expected, even in cases with only pre-tricuspid systemic-to-pulmonary shunt although more detailed analysis is required.
