 A 62-year-old man who had been diagnosed with pneumoconiosis was suspected to be possible MCTD(mixed connective tissue disease)because of positive antinuclear antibody and antiU1-RNP antibody. Exertional dyspnea was worsened in few months, and right heart catheterization(RHC)revealed the existence of pulmonary hypertension. Therefore, we started the vasodilatory therapy with bosentan, and dose increment of bosentan was required one year later. However, we recognized the elevation of pulmonary artery pressure on RHC and diffuse left ventricular hypokinesis on echocardiography 3 years later, then we supplemented tadalafil, which improved his clinical course. We experienced PAH associated with MCTD, who have responded to combination therapy of pulmonary artery vasodilators.
