Pulmonary artery hypertension is a common cardiovascular complication in preterm infants with bronchopulmonary
dysplasia which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Inhaled iloprost is used as a therapeutic
option in pulmonary hypertension, especially in adults. There have been but a few reports on the use of iloprost for
neonates and infants. We report the case of a 5 month-old-male infant who received neonatal intensive care for
4 months due to respiratory distress syndrome and prematurity, during which he developed bronchopulmonary
dysplasia. Echocardiography showed severe pulmonary hypertension. The initial treatment included respiratory
support with high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV); however, his clinical condition did not improve. Inhaled
iloprost with sildenafil, an oral phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor, was thus used. With the administration of
iloprost and sildenafil, his condition improved and he was weaned from oxygen. Our clinical experience suggests
that iloprost is a promising therapy for pulmonary hypertension, especially when inhaled nitric oxide is unavailable.
