A member asked:
What is the typical life expectancy for a toddler with pulmonary hypertension?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pulm HTN: This very much depends on why there is pulmonary hypertension in the first place. Also, what the severity of the pulmonary hypertension is and what other underlying medical problems are also present. This should be managed with a multidisciplinary approach with pediatric cardiologist; pediatric heart surgeon; primary care team; among others.
