ABSTRACT Background Accurate bioprosthesis implantation depth during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is crucial for optimal outcomes. Self‐expanding valves (SEVs) have evolved delivery catheter designs, from a double spine shaft in Evolut PRO+ (PRO + ) to single spine in Evolut FX (FX) and non‐spine in Navitor, to improve access ...

Balloon Valvuloplasty for Pulmonary Valve Stenosis
Balloon valvuloplasty for pulmonary valve stenosis by static dilation is the treatment of choice for the treatment of isolated valvular pulmonary stenosis in the infant, child, and adolescent. The procedure is also effective in neonates; however, the complications of the procedure are significantly higher and the efficacy is less.
