Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(10):1343-1349.   Published online October 15, 2000
Purpose : Pulmonary artery stenosis is mainly complicated by aortopulmonary shunt or total correction of tetralogy of Fallot(TOF). Results of surgical angioplasty are poor and the success rate of balloon angioplasty is 53-72%. Endovascular stents have been applied to these lesions. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the early results of stent implantation in postoperative pulmonary artery stenosis...

Purpose : Branch pulmonary artery stenosis remains a clinically challenging lesion. Results of surgical angioplasty are rarely rewarding, and balloon angioplasty is not uniformly successful. So, endovascular stent has been applied recently to these lesions. But this new modality has not been full yevaluated. The aim of this study is to evaluate the short-term result of stent implantation in postoperative branch pulmonary artery stenosis. Methods :...
