Comment on conditions associated with pulmonary hypertension in patients with FLNA variants, suggesting implications for treatment.

[1] reporting nine patients with FLNA loss-of-function (LoF) pathogenic variants and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) from the French Pulmonary Hypertension Network. The authors describe a particular PAH phenotype associated with congenital heart disease and lung parenchymal involvement, together with typical features of filaminopathies such as periventricular nodular heterotopia (PVNH).
