  • Title: Use of Palmaz stents to palliate pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect and stenotic aortopulmonary collaterals.
    Author: Vance MS.
    Journal: Cathet Cardiovasc Diagn; 1997 Apr; 40(4):387-9. PubMed ID: 9096942.
    Abstract:
    A 29-year-old woman with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect underwent palliative stenting of a stenotic aortopulmonary collateral. Follow-up demonstrated patent stents, with improved oxygenation and exercise capacity. This approach offers an attractive alternative to surgical shunt placement in select patients.
