Paediatric pulmonary hypertension caused by an ACVRL1 mutation presenting as Ortner syndrome.

Abstract

We report a rare aetiology of vocal cord paralysis secondary to undiagnosed severe pulmonary hypertension from a de novo ACVRL1 variant identified by whole-genome sequencing. The patient had a partial response to intravenous treprostinil in addition to inhaled nitric oxide, bosentan, and sildenafil.
