Predictors for long-term outcome of pulmonary valve perforation and balloon valvuloplasty in neonates with critical pulmonary valve stenosis or pulmonary valve atresia with intact ventricular septum [PDF]
IntroductionPercutaneous balloon valvuloplasty is the treatment of choice for critical pulmonary valve stenosis (CPS) and pulmonary valve atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) if the ventricle has a suitable size.
