Feasibility of SAPIEN PPVI after RVOT patch repair shown; leaves open need for larger trials on safety and durability.
Case Report (n=10)
p-value: p=<0.001
Demkow et al. (2013) conducted a case report in Moderate and severe pulmonary regurgitation after tetralogy of Fallot repair (n=10). Percutaneous Edwards SAPIEN valve implantation was evaluated on Right ventricular end-diastolic volume index (p=<0.001). Percutaneous Edwards SAPIEN valve implantation significantly decreased right ventricular end-diastolic volume index from 169.9 to 140.0 ml/m2 (P<0.001) in patients with a prior RVOT patch repair.
