Abstract

In late 2015, the Russian Federation registered the new non-selective endothelin receptor antagonist macitentan for the pathogenetic therapy of pulmonary arterial hypertension. The given clinical case demonstrates the possibility of using macitentan in a female patient with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension and its ability to affect the clinical, hemodynamic, and functional status of patients and to slow down the progression of the disease.
