Key result
Echocardiography is essential for the evaluation, procedural selection, and long-term prognostic assessment of isolated congenital pulmonary stenosis.
Why the study?
Guidelines for intervention in isolated pulmonary stenosis are totally based on echocardiography, which is required for procedure selection, hardware, and evaluating outcomes.
Echocardiography is the primary modality for guiding intervention, selecting hardware, and evaluating outcomes in isolated pulmonary stenosis.
Echocardiography directs intervention thresholds in isolated pulmonary stenosis; leaves open prospective validation of standardized protocols.
Congenital pulmonary stenosis (PS) is a common term for lesions causing right ventricular outflow obstruction. It can be further classified as the valvar, supravalvar, and infundibular PS. The PS may often present with other congenital heart diseases. In this article, echo imaging of isolated PS has been discussed. It is imperative to know that the guideline for intervention in isolated PS is totally based on echocardiography. Echocardiographic guidance is required for the selection of procedure, hardwares, evaluation of the outcome of the procedure, and long-term prognosis.
