  • Title: Surgical treatment of congenital pulmonary stenosis due to dysplastic leaflets and small valve anulus.
    Author: Vancini M, Roberts KD, Silove ED, Singh SP.
    Journal: J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg; 1980 Mar; 79(3):464-8. PubMed ID: 6444450.
    Abstract:
    Seven cases of pulmonary valve stenosis due to congenital dysplasia of the valvular apparatus have been corrected by patch-graft enlargement of the right ventricular outflow tract. The six surviving patients (85%) are now leading normal lives with good exercise tolerance. The satisfactory right ventricular performance, manifested by these subjects after the operation and in the long-term follow-up, supports the validity of the procedure in the presence of a normal right ventricle and tricuspid valve.
