Official title

Case Report: Resolution of Pulmonary Hypertension With Sildenafil and Bosentan in Patients With Trisomy 21 and Atrial Septal Defect

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Evidence has shown poor outcome for adult patients with pre-operative pulmonary hypertension following closure of an atrial septal defect. Life-threatening pulmonary hypertensive crises may occur in these patients when they no longer have an atrial communication to decompress high right heart pressures. This concern has led some to advocate fenestrated patch closure of ASDs in patients with pulmonary hypertension with the prospect of a repeated procedure in order to close the fenestrations at a later date.
