Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation with the Venus P-valve: clinical experience and early results.
BACKGROUND At present, the exclusion for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation for free pulmonary regurgitation after tetralogy of Fallot repair includes an unfavourably large right ventricular outflow tract. OBJECTIVE To report feasibility and early experience with a recently developed transcatheter heart valve, Venus P-valveTM, implanted in six patients with severe pulmonary regurgitati...
متن کاملEarly experience with the Venus p‑valve for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation in native outflow tract
INTRODUCTION The Venus p‑valve (MedTech, Shanghai, China) is a self-expanding percutaneous heart valve designed to be implanted in a native patched right ventricle outflow tract. The worldwide clinical experience with this valve is just beginning and the results have so far been encouraging. We present our initial early experience implanting the Venus p‑valve in the native right ventricle outfl...
متن کاملPercutaneous pulmonary valve implantation
INTRODUCTION Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) is one of the most exciting recent developments in the treatment of structural heart disease and has evolved as an attractive alternative to surgery in patients with dysfunctional right ventricle-pulmonary artery conduits. Although surgical pulmonary valve replacement is associated with low morbidity and mortality rates, there are ma...
متن کاملPercutaneous Pulmonary Valve Implantation
Pulmonary regurgitation (PR) is a frequent sequelae after repair of tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary atresia, truncus arteriosus, Rastelli and Ross operation. Due to patient growth and conduit degeneration, these conduits have to be changed frequently due to regurgitation or stenosis. However, morbidity is significant in these repeated operations. To prolong conduit longevity, bare-metal stenting...
متن کاملPercutaneous Pulmonary Valve Implantation— Clinical Context
Percutaneous Pulmonary Valve Implantation— Clinical Context For many congenital heart defects treated in infancy (eg, tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of the great arteries, double outlet right ventricle), long-term right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) dysfunction, in the form of pulmonary stenosis and regurgitation, is a common finding as patients become older (older children, adolescents,...
