Balloon valvotomy for critical stenosis or atresia of pulmonary valve in newborns.
OBJECTIVES Percutaneous balloon valvotomy was studied retrospectively in newborns with critical pulmonary valve stenosis or atresia to assess its potential role as an alternative therapy to operation. BACKGROUND Severe right ventricular outflow tract obstructions are life-threatening conditions requiring prostaglandin infusion immediately after birth and then relief of the valvular obstructio...
متن کاملThe atrial electrocardiogram as a guide to prognosis after mitral valvotomy.
A study has been made of serial electrocardiograms of patients with mitral stenosis in sinus rhythm, whose clinical progress was followed for at least four years after mitral valvotomy. The behaviour of the left atrial P wave after operation has been examined with special reference to its relationship to continued clinical progress. In addition, the form of the P wave in the pre-operative elect...
متن کاملThe results of valvotomy for simple pulmonary stenosis.
The medical aspects of simple pulmonary stenosis, i.e. valvular stenosis with a closed ventricular septum, have been discussed recently (Campbell, 1954). We wish now to describe the results after pulmonary valvotomy, as we have those after anastomotic and direct operation in Fallot's tetralogy (Campbell and Deuchar, 1953: Campbell, Deuchar, and Brock, 1954). We have carried out the follow-up in...
متن کاملClosed pulmonary valvotomy in infants under 6 months of age: report of 14 consecutive cases without mortality.
Fourteen infants, all under 6 months of age, underwent surgery for the relief of severe valvar pulmonary stenosis. A modified Brock (transinfundibular valvotomy) procedure was performed in all cases. Dilatation of the pulmonary valve with a mosquito clamp and biliary dilator is the basis of the modified operation. All infants survived the operation. In two patients there is residual, significan...
متن کاملImpaired exercise response and other residua of pulmonary stenosis after valvotomy.
The operation of pulmonary valvotomy has been so brilliantly successful that its failure to achieve an ideal end result in certain cases deserves comment. In this report, some residual effects of isolated pulmonary stenosis that may persist after complete valvotomy will be considered. It will be seen that all of these are the result of very severe stenosis or of long-delayed relief of stenosis ...
