Abstract
Pregnancy poses a significant maternal and foetal risk in women with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). With extremely limited treatment options available, we used Selexipag in addition to tadalafil in managing a pregnancy complicated by PAH. Selexipag may be a promising add-on therapy in this unique subset.
