  • Title: Recanalization of a discrete atretic right pulmonary artery segment with a new radiofrequency system.
    Author: Pedra CA, Filho RM, Arrieta RS, Tellez R, Fontes VF.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2003 Sep; 60(1):82-7. PubMed ID: 12929108.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case in which a discrete atretic segment of the right pulmonary artery (due to a Blalock-Taussig shunt) was reconstructed using a new radiofrequency system, balloon dilation, and stent implantation in an 18-month-old patient. The shunt was coil-occluded. The technique and applications of this novel approach are discussed.
