  • Title: Transcatheter recanalization of the left main pulmonary artery after four years of complete occlusion.
    Author: Fink C, Peuster M, Bertram H, Hausdorf G.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2001 May; 53(1):81-4. PubMed ID: 11329224.
    Abstract:
    A technique for transcatheter "reconstruction" of a completely occluded left pulmonary artery using radiofrequency perforation with subsequent balloon dilation and stent implantation is reported in a 7-year-old child. It is shown that transcatheter radiofrequency perforation can still be effective years after the occlusion of a vessel.
