Pulmonary hypertension is a rare and potentially fatal disease in children if left untreated. Emerging therapies, including Bosentan, a dual endothelin receptor antagonist, have shown significant benefits in the adult pulmonary hypertension population;however, few studies have assessed the efficacy and safety of endothelin receptor antagonists in infants and young children. Our study was a single-center retrospective analysis of patients less than two years of age with a confirmed diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension and initiated on Bosentan therapy between 2017 and 2020. Twelve cases met eligibility criteria. Demographic data, laboratory data, echocardiographic, and cardiac catheterization data were analyzed. With treatment, there was a statistically significant decrease in mean right ventricular systolic pressure estimated by the tricuspid regurgitation jet (79 ± 23 mmHg reduced to 52 ± 25 mmHg;p < 0.001) N-terminal pro-hormone B-type natriuretic peptide levels (21,071 reduced to 2,037;p < 0.001). Additionally, improvement and eventual normalization of right ventricular function and septal geometry was seen within the first four months of therapy. Patients who underwent cardiac catheterization after therapy initiation (n = 4) demonstrated hemodynamic improvements;however, only the decrease in diastolic pulmonary artery pressure was statistically significant (p = 0.018). No significant differences in hemoglobin, platelet count, or liver function tests were observed between groups. In conclusion, these data suggest that Bosentan may be an effective and relatively safe treatment option for children less than two years of age with pulmonary hypertension. Further long-term randomized control studies are necessary to validate the potential clinical benefit of utilizing this drug therapy in young children.
