Objective:We describe four cases of chronic pulmonary hypertension in infants and children with chronic lung disease and pulmonary hypoplasia due to severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) or congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM). We report data from cardiac catheterization under various conditions: baseline respiratory support and room air, hyperoxic and inhaled nitric oxide challenge. We further report cardiac catheterization measures after chronic pulmonary vasodilator therapy with sildenafil alone or a combination of sildenafil and inhaled nitric oxide (three patients).Design:Case series.Setting:Tertiary academic center.Patients:Infants and children ages 0–11 yrs with CDH (n= 3) or CCAM (n= 1) with evidence of chronic pulmonary hypertension by echocardiogram and cor pulmonale (n= 3).Interventions:Catheterization and pulmonary vasodilator therapy.Measurements and Main Results:Pulmonary vascular resistance, pulmonary arterial pressure, and changes in these measures were assessed. A 20% change in pulmonary vascular resistance was considered a clinically significant response. Ten catheterizations were performed in four patients. All patients had elevated pulmonary vascular resistance and pulmonary arterial pressures at initial catheterizations and significant vasodilation during inhaled nitric oxide.Conclusions:Chronic lung disease following pulmonary hypoplasia from CDH and CCAM is associated with abnormal pulmonary vascular tone in infants and children with evidence of chronic pulmonary hypertension. Chronic pulmonary vasodilator therapy may improve pulmonary vascular function and enhance lung growth in infants and children who are treated during their period of potential for rapid lung growth.
