Abstract EN
Central sleep apnea (CSA) and periodic breathing are unusual findings described in pediatric patients with congestive heart failure.
However, CSA has not been reported in children with pulmonary hypertension.
We hereby report on a 10-year-old girl with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension who had frequent central events in a periodic breathing fashion seen in her polysomnography, which was normalized following medical treatment leading to improvement of the pulmonary pressures.
