Abstract：
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) may manifest at any age, including during childhood. While pediatric PH frequently associates with early life alterations that cause occult or overt pulmonary vascular disease, all forms of PH seen in adults are also found in children, although with different degrees of prevalence according to PH subtype. PH-specific medications, rapid implementation of therapeutic advances, multidisciplinary teams for improved child and family support, and programs to facilitate successful transition to adult care have contributed to substantial improvement in survival to adulthood.
