Post-valvular stenosis of the pulmonary artery is increasingly recognized due to the introduction of cardiac catheterization and selective angiocardiography.
Highlights the historical importance of cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography in diagnosing post-valvular pulmonary artery stenosis.
Improved diagnostics increase recognition of post-valvular pulmonary stenosis; leaves open optimal contemporary management strategies.
the disorder was thought to be extremely rare. During the past decade, however, it has been recognized more often due to the introduction of cardiac catheterization and selective angiocardiography (Moller, 1953; Coles and Walker, 1956; Smith, 1958; Luan et al., 1960). In a series of 1650 cardiac catheterizations 60 examples of bilateral multiple stenosis of the pulmonary artery were reported by Agustsson et al. (1962), while in the same year Bell et al. were able to find 14 examples among 175 patients with congenital heart disease.
